Ingredients to make the avocado dressing
Directions
Cut the avocado and remove the outer skin. I’ve found the best way to do this is to cut the avocado in quarters and pull them apart. Stick your knife into the seed and it comes out easily that way. Then just peel the skin, chop the avocado into small pieces and add into the blender.
Peel some fresh garlic cloves and add them into the blender as well.
I used basil fresh from my herb garden. You also use cilantro or both for added freshness.
For the yoghurt, I used greek yoghurt to get a thick texture.
Blend all the ingredients mentioned above together. You can change the proportions as per taste. To make the consistency desirable, you can add water or more yoghurt.
Enjoy on your favorite salad or as a side with chips!
The dressing can be stored in an airtight jar for 7-10 days in the refrigerator. Although, it tastes best when served fresh.
