This is a twist on the famous Puerto Rican base. I am all about making it easy and fresh and not wasting anything plus I don't have a store nearby that I can get authentic Spanish seasoning so I had to come up with something as close as possible.

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 yellow onion
1 green bell pepper
3 garlic cloves (you can add up to 2 more if you really want some zing)
1 bunch fresh cilantro (washed)
2-3 tablespoons olive oil, depending on strength of your blender

Directions

1
Coarsely chop onion and bell pepper and place half of mixture in blender.
2
Add olive oil, puree.
3
As mixture becomes more like a paste, add garlic.
4
Add whole cilantro bunch through lid opening. You will need to stop blending in order to push bunch down.
5
Once you have a green puree, aka green gold, pour out mixture into an ice cube tray. Should make about 12 cubes.
6
Freeze.
7
When making your favorite stew or rice dish, pop out one cube for every 6 servings and add as base.
