(5 from 6 votes)I thought I had cilantro and was really looking forward to this but I had parsley. Just as well..... this came out excellent!!!! I know I will love this with cilantro and now I know I love it with parsley too!
This is fantastic recipe! We love creamy dressings!!! Thank you for always adding new ideas and recipes!!!
Wow! This dressing was amazing! I've used it to elevate Mexican bowls, as dip with homemade potato wedges and on veggies. Definitely recommend trying this. As another reviewer said, it makes quite a lot.
I made this recipe and am afraid that I would not be able to finish this in 5 days. If I froze it, would it extend the life of the dressing?
Did you find out if it freezes?
Delicious but a little on the salty side. Would make a great dressing for a Mexican salad or burrito bowl or even dipping sauce for pita chips. The possibilities are endless. Thank you for sharing!
I just put all ingredients into a vitamix for a low calorie light green dressing that was delicious and took 5 mins to make. V yummy!
