Avocado Dressing/Dip


This is my made up recipe for an avocado "green goddess style" dressing.  We were having spicy grilled steaks (using my Cajun spice rub recipe here) and wanted to use up an avocado that I feared was nearing to be over ripe (it wasn't luckily). I thought the dressing would be great to have the spicy grilled steak on a green salad, and it was!  


Makes about 1 cup
Ingredients

1 large avocado, or 2 small (peeled and pitted)
1/2 bunch  of cilantro, washed and bottom 1/3 of stems removed
Juice of 1 large lime, or 2 small
1/4 cup of mayo
1/4 cup of vegetable oil
1 clove fresh garlic
1 tsp salt

Add all ingredients into a blender, and puree until the dressing is smooth. Store covered tightly in the fridge. The avocado dressing remains bright green for about a week.  

We also used this for a sauce on tacos later in the week. Yum!
