Blitzed raw dressing

This dressing really brings salads to life, especially rocket with brown rice or quinoa, although it is also great with my Brown Rice Pasta Bake. Adding avocados to a salad dressing not only makes it wonderfully creamy, but also loads it with healthy fats, which are great for glowing skin.

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • Juice of 2 lemons
  • 50g chopped coriander
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp agave nectar or runny honey
  • 50ml water
  • Pinch each of Himalayan salt and ground black pepper

Method

  1. Put all the ingredients except the water, with salt and pepper to taste, into a blender, then blend together until smooth. Slowly pour in the water, with the motor running, until it reaches your desired consistency; you may need a little more water, depending on the size of the avocado.

  2. This is best served immediately, but otherwise store the dressing in the fridge in a recycled Lucy Bee jar. Give the jar a good shake before serving.
