- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 medium garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by cutting the avocado in half. Remove the pit and scoop out the flesh into a blender or food processor.
Rinse the fresh cilantro thoroughly under cold water. Measure out one cup, lightly packed, and add it to the blender.
Add the fresh lime juice and extra-virgin olive oil to the blender.
Pour in the water to help achieve a creamy consistency. You can adjust the amount of water later depending on desired thickness.
Peel the garlic clove and roughly chop it before adding it to the blender.
Add sea salt and black pepper to the mixture.

Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning or lime juice according to preference.
Transfer the dressing to a jar or container with a lid and refrigerate until ready to use.
