There are quite a few avocado cilantro dressing recipes posted on various websites. Most have yogurt in them. This one is my version of the dairy-free one found on detoxinista.com.

Even people who don’t like cilantro liked this one! Delicious on simple mixed greens salads as well as bean salads or over some cultured veggies. Reduce the water to 1/4 cup and use 1/4 cup of olive oil instead of 2 Tbsp. to make a dip instead of dressing.

1 avocado
1 cup chopped cilantro
3 Tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 cup water
2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
2 tsp. honey
1/2 tsp. sea salt

Place all ingredients except avocado in a blender container. Blend until smooth. Add avocado and blend again. Will keep refrigerated for a few days but best fresh.
