My Garden Avocado Dip and Dressing!

I wanted to share with you a new recipe I came up with yesterday, Garden Avocado Dip and/or Dressing!    WOW! It’s so good.  I was reading a fun, bell ringing, grocery store flyer when I came across their article about a dip they sell.  The ingredients were so simple oil, avocado, herbs, and vinegar.    I had all that good stuff at home so the minute I walked in the door from Natalie’s horse back riding lesson I whipped up my own version of Avocado Dip. Unfortunately we do not get to grow avocado’s here in the northeast so that part was grocery store bought:)   Here is how I did it.

How it’s done!

1.  I went right out to my garden and gathered chives, parsley, basil, and sage.  You can add whatever herbs you wish

2.  I took out my very old but well loved and used magic bullet, (you could use anything that blends well) and the avocado in the fridge I have had a for awhile.

You know when you are cutting into an avocado and you are thinking  “I hope it’s good, I hope it’s good” well lucky for me it was perfect! 

3.  I stuck everything in the blender  and blended quite well.  It was thick so I found myself adding some almond milk to thin and then eventually even some water.  Don’t forget your salt and pepper for your Garden Avocado dip.

Last night while falling asleep I found myself dreaming up new ways to mix this beautiful dip. Oh and the color of this dip is incredible.  It’s this beautiful pale green like a celadon glaze for pottery!   ENJOY! This Garden Avocado was light, creamy, and simple.  Last night I made it to put over my salad greens i picked from my garden!  I love eating out of my garden.   I also dipped some carrots and orange peppers in it while I was getting dinner together.   Add more herbs for more of a tang it’s so versatile, get creative!
