Caesar Avocado Dressing

You guys, did you know you can buy gazillions of avocados at costco for like four bucks? Needless to say I’m going a little avocado crazy and throwing these little green goblins into EVERYTHING left right and center. Today, I share with you my new favorite avocado recipe. Basically Caesar salad dressing on steroids. {Also known as the bomb-diggity.}

This stuff is the easiest thing in the world to make and takes a plain jane salad into holy-mother-of-awesomeness-this-is-incredible territory.

Yup. It’s that good.

Try it out this weekend 🙂 Here’s how you do it:

{PS- Don’t forget to enter to win two Cast Iron pans from Teflon HERE and like my photo found HERE!}

Start out with some basic ingredients. I always have these on hand….magically….

Anyways, crack open that avocado

and scoop it into your mini food chopper along with the mayo.

Squeeze in the lemon,

grate in the garlic,

and add in salt and pepper to taste.

Blend the whole thing up and if desired, add in a few glugs of olive oil {or even water} to get the dressing to the consistency you like.

Caesar dressing is pretty thick stuff, so I kept mine thick.

Gather the ingredients for a casesar salad and knock yourself out! I LOVE cracked black pepper on mine, so I went a little crazy with that. But, make this how you like and make sure you don’t skip the bacon! I love bacon…..

Here’s the printable:

Enjoy your weekend 🙂
