Instructions

  1. Combine all dressing ingredients except milk in a large blender. Blend until smooth. Add milk as needed to get the consistency you like.
  2. Chill for 30 minutes. The dressing will thicken slightly in the fridge.
  3. Keeps for 1-2 weeks in the fridge.

Notes

  • If tomatillos aren't available, you can substitute 1/4 cup salsa verde.
  • If the dressing is too tangy, add 1-2 teaspoons honey to tone it down.
