A creamy avocado cilantro lime sauce that is so good you can eat it by the spoonful! Perfect for topping grilled chicken, pulled pork lettuce wraps, or tuna salad!
When I say ‘so good you can eat it by the spoonful‘, what I mean is that it is so good that I eat it by the spoonful… and have been every day for the last week.
Not kidding one bit.
One of my all-time favorite condiments/sauces/dressing/dips is Pinch of Yum’s 5-Minute Magic Green Sauce. I’ve literally made it more times than I can count and it is good on EV.ER.Y.THING…. including right off the spoon.
And it is Whole30-approved! but not AIP-approved. So I made a few tweaks, removed a few ingredients, and added my own spin… so here it is!
AVOCADO CILANTRO LIME SAUCE
Let’s chat about the ingredients that makes this cilantro lime sauce so dang good.
Avocados: duh. These gorgeous fruits are the star of the show and give this sauce it’s creaminess.
Cilantro: Hi, have we met?! As you know, cilantro is my favorite herb and I firmly believe that everything tastes better with it in the mix.
Lime Juice: The juice adds some good acidity to the sauce to balance out the fat in the avocado and olive oil.
Spices: Because we don’t want a plain, boring avocado!
In addition to a simple ingredient list, making these avocado cilantro lime dressing couldn’t be easier!
- Add all ingredients to the bowl of your food processor and blend until combined.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
That’s it! Two steps and you are on your way to more flavorful meals.
And maybe you don’t want to eat it right off the spoon… here are a few of my favorite ways to use this avocado cilantro lime sauce!
- Make a quick tuna salad and use this sauce as the dressing!
- Use it to top your favorite taco.
- Dunk some veggies in it.
- Add it to any breakfast bowl or frittata!
The options are endless!
