Love avocados? Try this lovely pale green Avocado Dressing! Serve over salad leaves, a rice bowl, leftover chicken, you name it! Call it our magic green sauce.

You can also dress it up. For example, add a spoonful next to a portion of chilled crabmeat salad. Beautiful!

Note that the consistency is thicker than your typical dressing but it’s still liquid enough to use as a salad dressing, too.
