Creamy Avocado Cilantro lime sauce
Avocado Cilantro green sauce is so much more than your average condiment. This vibrant, creamy dream of a sauce enhances dishes from all corners of the world with its zesty, herbal flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 Ripe Avocado
- 1 cup of mix Parsley and Cilantro packed
- 2 tbsp lime juice Squeezed juice of one lime
- 1/2 tsp of Himalayan Pink salt this is what I was using, you can also use sea salt
- 1/2 cup Olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup Pistachio nuts Optional ingredient - 1/4 cup of Pistachio nuts or other nuts of your choice
Instructions
- Add all ingredients (except nuts) into your blender or food processor. I used my Ninja Blender/Food Processor Combo.
- Blend it for about 30 seconds to 1 minute until smooth.
- Add nuts and blend it again for another minute until smooth. That's it. The sauce is done! Pour the sauce from the blender into a bowl and start enjoying it while it's fresh and bursting with flavor and vitamins.
- Pro tip: Use a large silicone spatula to help scrape the sauce easily from the walls of the blender.
Notes
Storage
This avocado cilantro lime dressing is best consumed within a day or 2 but you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
Store the Avocado Cilantro sauce in a ceramic bowl or a glass jar in the refrigerator, covered. I used the wide-mouth mason jar. The trick is to get your cilantro guac to the fridge before the oxygen has a chance to brown it up. But worry not, the sauce has lime juice, which serves as a natural preservative to avocado and keeps it from browning.
It is even better the next day because the sauce gets thicker.
