Green Goddess Dressing

We were out at the lake this weekend, and as usual, we did some fabulous cooking. There is a fairly large kitchen out there, 3 women who love to cook, and plenty of time to do so....

My favorite thing we came up with this weekend was a homemade Green Goddess dressing. We tweaked the original recipe a bit, and now I can not imagine making it any other way! The flavor is fairly mild, so it can be served with a fairly intense main dish if you desire. We served ours with BBQ chicken and baked beans. It would also really be good on a Taco Salad with a southern-seasoned chopped chicken breast. Hope you enjoy as much as we did! Oh, I forgot to mention the best part... it is CRAZY easy.

Green Goddess Dressing
-1/2 cup mayo (we used light)
-1/2 cup sour cream (we used light)
-1/4 cup green onions lightly chopped
-1/4 cup cilantro
- 1 avocado
- 2-3 Tbs White Wine Vinegar (you could use any type of vinegar)
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- salt & pepper to taste
- milk (as needed to thin out to desired consistency)

Add all ingredients into a blender or food processor. Start with only 2 Tbs of vinegar and with no milk, and puree until all ingredients are fully pureed and mixed. Add milk 1 Tbs at a time until desired consistency is reached. If you add more than 2 Tbs of milk, add an additional Tbs of vinegar.

It is as easy as that!! We had quite a bit of this left over, and used it the next day as a dipping sauce for Chicken & Cilantro Quesedillas. It was fabulous!
