Cilantro-Lime Vierge Sauce
Bright, fresh, herbaceous sauce with a zesty kick from serrano pepper, smooth texture from avocado, and a vivid green color. Blended but slightly coarse for texture. Citrus and olive oil balance sharpness and heat. Great on grilled chicken, fish, or seared steak. Uses scallions instead of green onions for a sweeter milder onion note. Quick and no-cook, relying on fresh quality ingredients and proper chopping technique.

Adapted for nut allergies by swapping peanut butter for sunflower seed butter or oat cream cheese. Simple roll technique yields bite-sized rounds resembling sushi, perfect for casual finger food or quick fruit fixes. Requires no cooking, just knife skills and attention to even spread and roll tension. Textural contrast between chewy bread, crispy flakes, and soft banana notes. No dairy, eggs, or tree nuts for allergy-safe versatility. A quick assembly, good for snacks or light dessert.
