Make-Ahead and Freezing Instructions:
To Make-Ahead: Follow the recipe as usual, scoop the ready avocado cilantro lime dressing into an air-tight container, and refrigerate. As long as you’re keeping your avocado dressing sealed up tight, you’ll be able to keep it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
To Freeze: If you decide to freeze this dressing instead, it will keep for up to 3 months. Make sure your container is freezer-safe and seals properly.
Recipe Variations:
Make it spicy: You can also add more spice by adding a few drops of your favorite hot sauce, some cayenne pepper, or any other spicy spice you prefer.
Make it extra creamy: If you’re not allergic to dairy, you can ramp up the creaminess of this dressing by adding a bit of milk instead of water or even going a step further and adding some cream. The results are amazing.
Add nuts: You can’t go wrong with a little crunch and a yummy nutty flavor. It might not seem like a great idea to add nuts, but they perfectly complement this avocado dressing, leaving you wanting more. Just make sure you don’t have a tree nut allergy.
Add onion: Finally, you can add onion for extra flavor and quite a crunch. You can experiment with different kinds of onion to alter the taste from mild to intense. Green onions are usually best.
