Ingredients
1 large ripe avocado
1 cup buttermilk (more to reach the desired consistency)
¼ cup cilantro
¼ cup parsley
1 tablespoon fresh dill
Juice of 1 lime
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
-
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a blender or food processor.
-
Add the buttermilk, cilantro, parsley, fresh dill, lime juice, garlic, onion powder, chili powder, and salt.
-
Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
-
If the dressing is too thick, add more buttermilk, a little at a time, until it reaches your desired consistency.
-
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, lime juice, or chili powder if necessary.
-
Pour the dressing into a jar or bottle and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Notes
For a spicy kick, add diced jalapeños or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
For a vegan version, replace buttermilk with a non-dairy milk (like almond or oat milk) and omit dairy ingredients.
Use Greek yogurt instead of avocado for a lighter, tangy version.
