HOMEMADE AVOCADO LIME DRESSING (DIP)

 

Did you know that making your own salad dressings is quite simple? That is correct. To brighten up any salad, prepare a jar of this homemade avocado lime dressing in only 10 minutes. It’s a simple and delicious sauce to have on hand for healthy eating. The avocado lime dressing can also be used as a vegetable dip. This creamy green dressing will become your new go-to healthy garnish in no time. We’re confident that once you’ve tried it, you’ll never go back to store-bought dressings.

This simple and delightful salad dressing is made with avocado, which is rich, silky, and nutrient-dense. We like to make it in the salad bowl we’ll toss the final salad in for easy cleanup, but it can be made ahead of time and stored in a well-sealed jar or covered ramekin for a few days.

Avocados are commonly advertised as a healthy food in salad dressings, smoothies, toast toppings, and desserts, according to certified nutritionist Jo Lewin. The following are some of the health advantages:

  • Keep your eyes healthy.
  • It helps to reduce cholesterol.
  • Help you to regulate your appetite.
  • Avocados are nutrient-dense fruit.
  • Can support your heart health.

 

Vegan Globetrotter Tips

Grind your own cumin seeds, roasting them first: Place roughly 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds in a small frying pan over medium-high heat and toast them. Cook, toss, or shake regularly until the cumin has a  toasted aroma. Place the cumin seeds on a plate or other receptacle where they may cool in a single layer, allowing them to cool rapidly and avoid over-toasting. Using a mortar and pestle, a clean coffee grinder, or a spice grinder, grind the ingredients.

Ground cumin provides an earthy balance to the creamy avocado and fresh lime juice, but if you don’t like cumin, take it out and substitute it with ground cilantro or your favorite minced spice.

In this dressing, use the best olive oil you can find; inferior non-virgin oils can often affect adjacent flavors for the worst.

 

Serving Tips

  • Dress the greens with the avocado lime dressing.
  • It’s great for dipping your favorite vegetables in.
  • It’s perfect for wraps and sandwiches.
