Ingredients
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 avocado peeled, pitted and quartered
- 1/4 cup flat-leaf parsley chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2-4 tbsp milk use more for a thinner dressing
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil
- Juice of 1/2 of a lime
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender. Pulse/puree until creamy. Add additional milk (1 tablespoon at a time) for a thinner dressing.
- Store in an sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 10 days. Drizzle over salad or use as a dip for vegetables.
Notes
- For a thinner dressing, add additional milk, lime juice and/or olive oil in 1-tablespoon increments until the desired consistency has been reached.
- Make it a lighter dressing by cutting the amount of mayo and sour cream in half.
- Add extra fresh herbs for an extra punch of flavor! Add dried herbs such as basil or throw in a few tablespoons of chopped fresh herbs! Fresh dill or fresh chives would taste DELICIOUS in this dressing.
- Add 1/4 teaspoon of onion powder for extra flavor.
- If you love ranch more than you love avocados, it would be delicious to add a teaspoon or so of dry ranch dressing mix.
