Ingredients

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 2 organic garlic cloves chopped
  • 1/2 juice of half of an organic lemon
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
  • 2 tsp minced red onion
  • 1/3 cup avocado oil
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 2-3 tsp water optional

Instructions

  1. In a food processor or blender add all the ingredients except the water and pulse or blend until nice and smooth.

Recipe Notes

If the dressing appears to thick add the 2-3 tsp water or add oil and blend this should loosen the dressing.  

You can substitute the avocado oil with olive oil, if you are going to use olive oil make sure to use a light olive oil, I find the extra virgin olive oil is too heavy for this dressing.

*use organic ingredients when possible.

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup white balsamic vinegar
  • 3-4 tbsp Raw honey I used three

Instructions

  1. This is how it should look once it coats the spoon

Recipe Notes

Once the balsamic reduction coats the spoon it is done, it has so many uses you can drizzle it on ice cream, fruits of your choice, cake, chicken, avocado, drizzle over a salad, add it to any dish it is endless. 

Once cooled store in a mason jar and refrigerate.  If your balsamic reduction becomes too thick once you refrigerate it you can add a little warm water and it will loosen it up and it will not change the taste or the level of thickness just add about 1/2 tsp of hot water.

*To make sure your reduction is the consistency of molasses dip the spoon into the liquid and make sure the back of a spoon is covered and not runny the level of thickness of your balsamic reduction should be like molasses.

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp organic coconut oil melted
  • 2 tbsp organic apple cider vinegar I used Braggs
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1/2 juice of a fresh organic lemon
  • 2 tbsp shallot, minced 1 small shallot or half of a large one
  • 2-3 organic garlic cloves minced
  • 1 pinch kosher salt
  • 1 pinch black fresh pepper
  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes optional

Instructions


Recipe Notes

In a mason jar add all the ingredients and shake until mixed well. This dressing tastes better as it marries.  Coconut oil solidifies and you need to warm it up before every use.  I keep it in the refrigerator and warm it up in the microwave before I use it.  I love this dressing the way it is but you can add honey or agave nectar as a sweetener.
