Ingredients

  • 1 medium avocado
  • cup lime juice
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1-2 teaspoons chili powder see notes
  • 1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
  • 3 medium green onions scallions
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • ½ - 1 cup plant milk
  • ¼ teaspoon salt optional

Instructions

  • Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop out the flesh and place it in a blender.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients, except the plant milk, in the blender and blend until smooth.
  • Add ¼ of a cup of plant milk and blend. Then, start adding more plant milk until you reach the desired consistency. Taste and adjust the spices as desired.

Notes

  • This recipe makes about 1 ½ cups of dressing, depending on how much milk you add. Nutritional information is based on ¼ cup of dressing. 
  • In place of chili powder and chipotle powder, use 1-2 teaspoons of my homemade chipotle seasoning blend
  • Store avocado dressing in the refrigerator in a tightly sealed container for up to 2 days. Stir before serving, and add more lime juice to thin it out.
