Ingredients

  • 1 avocado large, ripe

  • 1/3 cup olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup Italian parsley roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons tarragon fresh, roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons dill fresh, roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon capers with brine
  • 1/4-1/3 cup water to thin to desired consistency
  • sea salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • fresh garlic grated, to taste, optional

Instructions

  • Add the avocado, Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, capers, and herbs to a food processor bowl. Process until smooth.
  • With the processor running, thin the dressing out with water.
  • Season the dressing with sea salt, black pepper, and fresh garlic, to taste.

Notes

Thanks to the lemon juice, this avocado based salad dressing stores well in the fridge up to 5 days without browning.
Store the dressing in an airtight container or mason jar, and use it throughout the week.

Green Goddess Dip

This dressing is thick and creamy, perfect to use for crudites as a dip!
Use less water (or none at all) to keep the dressing extra thick, perfect for coating your family's favorite veggies.

Vegan Green Goddess Dressing

Easily adapt this recipe to be dairy free by using a plant-based yogurt.
