Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh packed cilantro
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
- 1/2 a ripe avocado
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Pinch of ground black pepper
Instructions
- Add all dressing ingredients to a high speed blender and blend on high until a creamy, slightly thick dressing forms.
- Transfer to a glass jar with a lid and store it in the refrigerator or use it right away on a healthy salad.
Notes
- Use fresh ingredients like fresh avocado, cilantro and limes for the best results.
- If you are not using the dressing right away then make sure to store it in a glass jar fitted with a lid and keep it in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it. It will keep for about 4 days.
- To thin the dressing out, you can add more lime juice or a little bit of water 1 teaspoon at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
- For extra creamy dressing, use the whole avocado. This will make it thicker so you will likely need to add more lime juice or a little bit of water to thin it out.
