The thing about avocados is that when they’re ready to eat, they need to be eaten, and finding creative ways to enjoy them without getting avocado fatigue is a struggle. This dressing is awesome with celery and crazy good tossed with romaine lettuce. To keep it from turning brown, store it in an airtight container with a leftover avocado pit inside, and try to gobble it up as quickly as possible.
2 medium Hass avocados, peeled and pitted (about 8 oz/220 g of flesh)
⅔ cup (160 ml) light-tasting oil, such as avocado oil or light olive oil
½ cup (115 g) roughly chopped white onions
½ packed cup (35 g) fresh cilantro leaves and stems
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 cloves garlic
½ teaspoon finely ground sea salt
- Place all the ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth.
- Transfer the dressing to a 14-ounce (415-ml) or larger airtight container for storage.
STORE IT: Keep in the fridge, with a piece of plastic wrap over the top to keep the dressing from browning, for up to 3 days.
