Yogurt Avocado Salad
Dressing is similar to
Avocado Lemon Dill Salad Dressing, in
that it features the flavors of avocado, lemon and dill.
This avocado salad dressing recipe differs, in that it uses
yogurt (plain or lemon) and milk to add flavor and creaminess
rather than sour cream and mayonnaise. It is
lighter than one would imagine, and is wonderful for a variety of salads, and
can |
|
|
|
be used in place of the
other avocado salad dressing in LTF's
Chicken & Avocado Salad
recipe. It can also be used as a dip for
fresh vegetables.
This delicious salad dressing is very easy to make and takes only
a few minutes. The lemon juice helps to preven the
dressing from turning brown, allowing it to store in the refrigerator for
days while maintaining its color.
If you enjoy avocados
with a variety of foods, you might also want to
experiment with this dressing with other foods such
as omelets, hamburgers, sandwiches, soups or as a
|
|
garnish for Mexican
dishes. Avocados are packed with
vitamins and minerals. They also are a great source
for omega 3 fatty acids. For the best results when making this delicious salad
dressing, take your time in choosing avocados that are
ripened, but in the beginning stages of softening. This way,
you will end up with a vibrant green salad dressing that not
only tastes fresh, but it will color your salad or any other
dishes beautifully. |
