AVOCADO RANCH DRESSING



Avocado Ranch Dressing image

This recipe has the flavor of traditional ranch dressing but is extra smooth and creamy, thanks to the avocado. Making dressing at home is a great alternative to store-bought because you know exactly what's inside. Dip crunchy veggies into the dressing for an easy afternoon snack.

1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
