Avocado Lime Dressing Recipe
This avocado lime dressing is a healthier take on mayonnaise-based salad dressings. It’s ultra-creamy, tangy, herby and it’s so yummy drizzled over summer salads, grilled veggies, burrito bowls or perfect as a dip.

Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 Ripe avocado
- ½ cup Sour cream (or green yogurt or plain yogurt)
- ½ cup Cilantro
- 1 clove Garlic
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- ¼ teaspoon Cumin powder
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- ¼ cup Lime juice
- ¼-⅓ cup Water
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients into the food processor or blender jar.
- Blend it until smooth.
- Check the consistency, if it’s too thick then add 1 tablespoon of water at a time, blend and see if needed more or not.
- Taste and adjust the salt and lime juice as needed.
Notes
Storage: It stays good for 3 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
Serving Ideas:
- Serve as a salad dressing (like I used in vegetarian taco salad)
- Drizzle over your burrito bowls.
- Enjoy as a tacos sauce or add into burritos.
- Drizzle over grilled or oven-roasted veggies.
- Dipping sauce for your chips, fries, wedges or raw veggies.
- Spread it over the burger buns or sandwiches.
- Little spicy: add half of jalapeno (seeds and veins removed)
- Less calorie: Skip the oil and add more water. This one has less shelf life and may discolor and water separation to occur upon storage.
- Different herbs: Try with parsley, chives, dill leaves.
- Less creamy: Skip the sour cream.
