Ingredients

  • 1 pound tomatillos husked and rinsed
  • 1/2 jalapeno you can remove the seeds if you want, or leave them in for an extra kick
  • 1 small Spanish onion quartered
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 Tablespoon honey
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro roughly chopped
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 lime juiced and zested
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients in a blender or food processor.
  • Process for 1-2 minutes until the dressing is smooth and creamy.

Notes

If you are not going to use all of the dressing, store it in an air tight container with a piece of plastic wrap on top of the dressing to make sure it says fresh and bright green!
