If you have extra avocados and want something new to make with them, this Lectin-Free Vegan Lemon Dill Avocado Dressing is exactly what you need!
No matter how hard I try, I can't ever time the ripening of my avocados just right. When I buy them, they are too hard to cut into and use. So they sit there patiently waiting. Then by the time I remember to check on them, I've waited too long and they are so bad I can't even use them. It's a shame how many avocados I've had to throw away because of this 🙁
This recipe will save the day if you have avocados that are ~just~ about to go bad and you need something quick and easy to make with them.
All you need to do is add them to a Vitamix, with a few other ingredients that you probably already have on hand, and in less than 5 minutes you have a creamy, tangy dressing that's perfect over a salad.
My favorite way to use it is over a baked sweet potato (yum!) and with the next recipe I will be posting...so stay tuned!
This healthy recipe is made with clean, whole food ingredients and is raw, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, lectin-free, oil-free, nut-free and paleo-friendly.
