Notes
For the best texture and flavor, use ripe avocados. They should yield slightly to gentle pressure. Avoid overripe avocados with brown spots, as they can affect the taste of your dressing.
If you prefer a thinner dressing, add a splash of water or extra lime juice and blend until smooth. For a thicker consistency, simply blend less or use less liquid. To keep your creamy avocado lime dressing fresh and green, store it in an airtight container with a layer of plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface of the dressing. Refrigerate for up to 4 days.Nutrition
