Why You'll Love Green Goddess Dressing

Creamy, bright, and herbaceous, this dressing makes anything you drizzle it on feel luxe and fresh. It's a fridge essential that tastes like you went to a restaurant.

Tips and Tricks

For best texture, use ripe avocado and blend until fully emulsified.
A high-speed blender gives a smoother, glossier finish.

Variations

Add a handful of spinach or arugula for extra greens.
Stir in anchovy paste or capers for umami depth.

Substitutions

Sub Greek yogurt or sour cream for crème fraîche.
Use lime instead of lemon for a more tropical vibe.
No chives? Try green onions or scallions.

Best served with

Little gem or butter lettuce salads
Grain bowls, roasted carrots, grilled salmon
As a dip for crudité or chips

How to Store Leftovers

Store in a sealed jar or container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Stir or shake before using-natural separation may occur.

Common Questions

Can I make this dairy-free?

Yes! Swap crème fraîche for full-fat coconut cream or your favorite plant-based yogurt.

Does it oxidize?

Thanks to the lemon juice, the avocado holds color well-just keep it sealed and chilled.
