CREAMY AVOCADO DRESSING



Creamy Avocado Dressing image

Recipe video above. This is a dressing that uses avocado to make it creamy, rather than mayonnaise or loads of oil. It doesn't taste very avocado-ey because avocados are dense so it needs to be thinned out to make it pourable as a dressing. Rather, think of the avocado as the better-for-you means to get a creamy dressing fix!Excellent use for avocados that are a bit overripe or with brown spotty bits. Use as dressing for all your favourite salads. Particularly good salads that call for Ranch, Caesar or other mayo-rich dressings.Makes 1 1/4 cups - enough for a side salad for 6 to 8 (depending on how much you use!)

CREAMY CUCUMBER-AVOCADO SALAD DRESSING



Creamy Cucumber-Avocado Salad Dressing image

This is from Sunset Magazine. I belong to a CSA so this is perfect because it uses a lot of the produce I am getting right now. So fresh and delicious! Great on salads and steamed vegetables. Zaar is not taking "spring onions" as an ingredient. You can use green onions or spring onions.

AVOCADO DRESSING



Avocado Dressing image

I love cucumbers! And I love avocados! And I love salad dressings. A perfect cool combination that requires very little work. Great for dipping pita, cucumbers, spread on flatbread instead of mayo for something different. I love the use of green onions here.

Healthy avocados make this vinagrette based dressing creamy! Wonderful on green salads, or as a dip for crudite. Change up the flavor by using a different vinegar, or lime juice instead of lemon. Try it tossed with cooked quinoa or bulgur for an easy grain salad. Serving is 2 tablespoons.
