CREAMY AVOCADO DRESSING
Recipe video above. This is a dressing that uses avocado to make it creamy, rather than mayonnaise or loads of oil. It doesn't taste very avocado-ey because avocados are dense so it needs to be thinned out to make it pourable as a dressing. Rather, think of the avocado as the better-for-you means to get a creamy dressing fix!Excellent use for avocados that are a bit overripe or with brown spotty bits. Use as dressing for all your favourite salads. Particularly good salads that call for Ranch, Caesar or other mayo-rich dressings.Makes 1 1/4 cups - enough for a side salad for 6 to 8 (depending on how much you use!)

Letters to the Editor section. The recipe was requested from The Warehouse restaurant in Marina del Rey, California.Sometimes I will add some chopped cilantro and finely diced jalapeno pepper to the dressing, especially if I'm serving this with Mexican food such as enchiladas.
