I'm not a fan of cumin, so I omitted it from the salsa verde. It was still delicious!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my grilled vegetables turned out mushy. Maybe I grilled them for too long?

The salsa verde is so versatile. I used it on the grilled vegetables, but I also think it would be great on grilled chicken or fish.
