AVOCADO-LIME RANCH DRESSING



Avocado-Lime Ranch Dressing image

This avocado lime ranch dressing is a Chick-fil-A copycat recipe. This version has no sugar added, is half the calories of the original, and is made with buttermilk, avocado, fresh cilantro, spices, and lime for a tangy, zesty twist on a classic salad dressing. Dairy-based salad dressings will last in the refrigerator for up to one week. Using freshly opened sour cream and buttermilk will help it last as long as possible.-Kelsey Reddick Smith, Knoxville, Tennessee
