Fresh cilantro is one of nature's best detoxification tools. It aids the liver in purifying blood and removes heavy metals from our body. The best part about cilantro is that it is incredibly affordable and all natural.

3/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, re-hydrated
1 small shallot or 1/2 medium red onion
Juice of half a lime
