Avocado Dressing

 

A while ago I was having dinner at a local restaurant and I ordered a salad with avocado dressing.  I don't remember what was in the salad but I do remember that I Loved the dressing!  Since then I have searched Google and Pintrest trying every dressing I could find  but nothing came close.  After a bit of experimenting I came up with this one and it's great.  Maybe not quite as good as the original, but a close second.  

The quest for the perfect avocado!  I Am learning how to tell if it is ready to eat and I love the moment when you cut one in half and it is the perfect colour, it's very rewarding.  I have had my share of duds too!
