Creamy Cilantro Lime Dressing 
Ingredients
  • 1 cup loosely packed cilantro, stems removed and roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice (about 1/2 lime)
  • 1-2 garlic cloves
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 1/2 tsp. white wine vinegar
  • 1/8 tsp. salt



Directions
  • Puree all ingredients in a blender or food processor until smooth.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.




Notes and variations:
To add heat, use cayenne pepper or some jalapeno.
For different flavor combos, add cumin, more garlic, or more lime juice.
If you prefer to avoid the tartness from the Greek yogurt and vinegar, add a little honey to tone it down, or use regular plain yogurt.
For vegan/dairy-free, use plain non-dairy yogurt (soy, coconut, or almond-based varieties). People have also had great success with avocado in place of yogurt!
