Today I’m sharing my easy mix that I use on tacos, with veggies, & even thinned out as a dressing. I call it the Creamy Healthy Avocado Sauce! Keep reading to check out this simple wonder!
So this recipe was born months ago when I had half an avocado that I needed to use up. My husband doesn’t eat them & although I can sit down to a whole one I wanted to make it last. I always have these ingredients on hand with the exception of the avocado so it practically makes itself.
- ½ a ripe avocado
- ¼ to ½ cup Greek yogurt
- 1 to 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- ½ a fresh or roasted jalapeno, chopped & seeded OR jalapeno sauce
- 3 pinches fresh cilantro, chopped fine
- Combine all ingredients in food processor or whisk together until creamy. Add more or less milk depending on how thin you'd like it.
- Serve chilled.
This day I was really feeling tacos & this sauce was absolutely a perfect topper! These are roasted chicken tacos on corn tortillas topped with lettuce, Creamy Avocado Sauce, & some beautiful feta cheese. Yum! Also great with chopped veggies (use it in place of ranch!) & just about anything that is good with a chilled topper in my opinion. If you need a dip cut back on the milk & add a touch more greek yogurt. Also great with a tablespoon or two of your favorite salsa.
