Method
 

Step-By-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by cutting a ripe avocado in half and carefully remove the pit using a spoon or knife. Scoop out the creamy green flesh with a spoon, ensuring to get all of it into your mixing bowl or food processor.
  2. In your food processor or blender, add the scooped avocado alongside avocado mayonnaise and coconut milk. Then, pour in apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, dried rosemary, dill weed, and chives.
  3. Secure the lid on your food processor or blender, and blend the ingredients for about 30 seconds on medium speed. Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure all the ingredients are well mixed.
  4. After blending, check the thickness of your dressing. If it's too thick for your liking, add a little water, one tablespoon at a time, while blending again until you reach your desired consistency.
  5. Once blended, take a moment to taste your dressing. Adjust the seasoning by adding more apple cider vinegar, sea salt, or black pepper according to your preference.
  6. Transfer your freshly made dressing into an airtight container. Enjoy it right away as a zesty salad dressing, dip, or sauce!
