Notes
- Want to make this dressing creamier? Add half of a ripe avocado before blending. Uber creaminess will be achieved.
- Not a fan of the sugar? You could keep this dressing sugar free by using 2 teaspoons of monk fruit or stevia. You can even use honey or pure maple syrup in place of the white sugar.
- Prefer your dressing spicy? Add in 1 tablespoon diced jalapeno to spice up the flavor.
- To store this dressing, keep it in a jar with a tightly fitting lid in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. It may separate a little so you will need to shake it up or stir it before using it.
