hello rawfolks

i bought some cilantro yesterday. any ideas on smoothies or juices it will mix well with? actually here is what i bought yesterday

oranges
bananas
grapes
kale
cilantro
mint
blueberries
parsley

this morning i made a smoothie made of frozen bananas, parsley, kales, frozen grapes, mint, and dates. it took my tastebuds a little while to get use to the taste because it had a salty undertaste. the next time i will leave the banana out..it has strong presence. any idea where the salt taste came from?

I love cilantro in tomato, cucumber, celery, carrot and water. I also found this recipe and liked it. I would have never thought about putting it together, but it was really good!

I really don't like cilantro and grapefruit together.

I love cilantro in a savory soup/smoothie with baby spinach, avocado and water.

I like cilantro with banana, frozen pineapple or fresh orange, baby spinach. I find the citrus-y type flavors to be nice with cilantro...

I'll bet the salty was from the kale, but could have come from the parsley.
