Ingredients

  • 2 small (or 1 large) avocado cut into pieces
  • 30 ml (2 Tablespoons) apple cider vinegar
  • 45 ml (3 Tablespoons) olive oil
  • 1 small clove garlic grated or crushed
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt & pepper
  • 60 ml (1/4 cup) water

Instructions

  • Place the avocado, vinegar, oil, garlic and mustard into a small container.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Blitz with a handheld blender until smooth. It will be very thick at this point.
  • Check the consistency of the dressing. If you would like it to be slightly thinner, add the water and blitz again.
  • Use at will.

Notes

The dressing will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.
