A cool and creamy avocado dressing with tangy buttermilk, fresh cilantro and lime juice along with some spicy jalapeno pepper ~ what else do you need to make your dressing yumm:)
For a new salad that I have been thinking about I wanted a nice and cool and creamy dressing and I was thinking about trying something a little bit different, an avocado dressing. I was originally planning on including diced avocado in the salad but I liked the idea of a creamy avocado dressing even more. I did make one quick change to the recipe by including some mayonnaise which goes fabulously well with avocados. I have to say that this avocado dressing is amazingly good; nice and creamy so so fresh and vibrant! Now I just need to resist eating it all by the spoonful so that it can make it into the salad!
Ingredients
- 1 medium avocado
- 1 small jalapeno*
- 1/4 cup cilantro
- 1 lime, juice
- 1 green onion
- 1 clove garlic
- 3/4 cup buttermilk**
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise (completely optional)
- 1/2 tsp cumin seeds, toasted and ground
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions
- Puree everything in a blender until smooth. Store in fridge and finish within a few days.
** Use more buttermilk to make it thinner or less to make it thicker.
