Chimichurri Dipping Sauce (for bread)

1/3 cup lime juice
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh minced garlic
2 tablespoons fresh minced onion
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons fresh ground pepper (two teaspoons is correct!)
1/2 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon sugar
1 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
1/2 cup vegetable oil (canola, etc.)
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

Place all ingredients except the oil in a blender or food processor. Blend until pureed. Gradually add the oils until the mixture is emulsified.

Serve with fresh bread and a tossed salad for a quick summertime meal.

Note: This sauce freezes well, so make up a batch when parsley is abundant, and have it available all year.
