Ingredients

  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro
  • 2 garlic clove
  • 2 limes juiced
  • 2 teaspoon honey
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt or plain yogurt
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • cup avocado or olive oil

Instructions

  • Remove the stems of the cilantro.
  • Combine all ingredients except the oil into the blender.
  • Blend until smooth.
  • With the motor running, slowly add the avocado or olive oil and blend until combined.
  • Transfer the dressing into a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid or container with a lid and store in the fridge until ready to use.

Notes

*Be sure to dry the cilantro as much as possible after washing it, as the water can thin out your dressing.
  • Storing leftovers: Keep this homemade cilantro lime dressing in an airtight container in the fridge for up to about 1 week.
  • Freezing: You can also freeze it for up to a month. We like to freeze it in ice cube trays, so that if just one or two portions are needed, you can pop them out individually, instead of having to thaw a whole large batch. To use from a frozen, thaw it in the fridge the night before you need to use it.
