Ingredients

• 2 pieces ripe avocados

• 1 cup fresh cilantro
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Step 1

Begin by cutting the avocados in half and removing the pits. Use a spoon to scoop the flesh into a blender or food processor.

Roughly chop the cilantro and add it to the blender. Make sure to include both the leaves and some of the stems for added flavor.

Add the honey, salt, and black pepper to the mixture.

Step 5

Blend the ingredients until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.

Step 6

Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lime juice if desired.

Step 7

Transfer the dressing to a serving bowl or jar. It can be used immediately or chilled in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
