Notes
- You can use this as a thick dressing or dip. To dilute the thickness, you can add a bit of water or buttermilk for a more rich dressing.

- Jalapeno peppers are optional but I find that they give a bit of heat and balance the creaminess of the dressing quite well. You can also add some Chipotle powder.
- This is a rich dressing. To make it healthier, substitute the sour cream and mayonnaise with equal parts Greek yogurt.
- You can store this in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week. Fresh avocados will tend to brown after that and lose its bright green color.
