I would keep some in the refrigerator to play around with -- omelet,
bruschetta, flavor mayo or cream cheese for a sandwich spread or dip,
dress a potato salad. I would freeze the rest. I might try covering
some chicken breasts or fish filets with plenty of chimichurri and
freezing it in a freezer bag.
