This avocado salsa verde may be the perfect summer condiment. It requires no cooking, only takes 10 to 15 minutes to make, looks gorgeous, and tastes amazing with anything grilled — and even most things that aren't. Spoon this spectacularly simple green sauce over grilled pork tacos or grilled meats, or serve it with chips.
