Description

Refreshing cilantro vinaigrette with fresh cilantro, lime juice, and cumin. It’s so good over a salad or as a dip.


Ingredients

Units Scale

Yields: 3/4 cup

  • 2 cups packed cilantro leaves
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1/2 cup avocado oil or other neutral-tasting oil
  • 2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 tsp. ground cumin
  • 1 tsp. honey
  • 3/4 tsp. kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl of a food processor. Pulse until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. Serve immediately or store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  2. To Make it Creamy: Add 1/2 cup plain whole-milk Greek yogurt.

Notes

  • Leftovers: Store the vinaigrette in an airtight container for up to 5 days. It will slightly thicken when chilled. Shake well before serving.
