Ingredients
- 1 cup packed fresh chopped herbs, see notes
- 2 green onions, roughly chopped
- 1 garlic clove, roughly chopped
- 2 teaspoons capers
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lemon, squeezed for 2 tablespoons lemon juice, plus 1 teaspoon zest
- ¼ teaspoon Sea salt, more to taste
- 1 medium-sized avocado, about 1 cup of avocado flesh
- Black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place the mixed herbs, green onion, garlic, capers, olive oil, lemon juice and zest, and salt in the bowl of a food processor or blender.
- Cut the avocados in half and scoop the flesh into the food processor bowl. Process until smooth and green.
- The texture will be thick and creamy, perfect for a dip or mayo substitute. Add water or more olive oil if you want thinner dressing.
- Adjust salt and black pepper to taste.
- Store the dressing in the fridge for three days or freeze it for up to three months.

Notes
- You can use any combination of soft herbs like basil, parsley, dill, mint, tarragon, or cilantro. I like to use half a cup of basil, a few mint leaves, a few dill fronds and flat-leaf parsley for the rest. Or whatever herbs I have in my fridge.
- See ingredients and substitutes if you need alternatives.
