Ingredients

1 avocado (peeled and pitted)
½ cup sour cream
2 Tablespoons mayonnaise
½ cup cilantro (leaves and stems)
Juice of 1 lime
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 jalapeno (chopped (seeds removed for less heat))
2-3 Tablespoons water or milk
½ teaspoon Kosher salt
Pepper (to taste)

Instructions

Place the avocado, sour cream, mayonnaise, cilantro, lime juice, garlic, and jalapeno in a blender. Pulse until smooth.
Add the water until the dressing reaches a thick but pourable consistency. If you're using the dressing as a dip, you might not want to add any water at all. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

This dressing lasts a surprisingly long time in the fridge without browning! We've had no problems using it for up to two weeks.
The sour cream can be substituted with Greek yogurt.
Omit the jalapeno completely if you don't want any heat.
