Notes

I don't have cilantro added to this recipe simply because my family wont eat it. They taste soap. I taste heaven. We have compromised. However, if you want to add some, throw about 1 tbsp of minced cilantro into the the mix after pulsing. And just stir it in. You don't want to pulse the cilantro. Leave some bigger leaves in there.
