This summer when you are wanting to have a salad, but don’t want the traditional lettuce salad, or you are wanting something to “spiffy” up the look of the dinner you are serving, let me encourage you to try this. It tastes so fresh and looks beautiful on freshly sliced tomatoes.
2 ripe avocados
3 tables lemon juice
1 tables grated onion
1/2 teas salt
1/2 teas garlic powder or 1 clove minced
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
dash of Tabasco sauce
Peel and seed avocados. Place in a blender with the lemon juice and puree. Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth and creamy. If dressing is still a little thick, thin with milk to desired consistency. Yields 1 1/2 cups

Hi Trudy! I love your blog! My mom (Dottie) told me about your yummy recipes and endless humor, so I stopped by to check it out. This avocado dressing sounds yummy and reminds me of our favorite pesto. Boil your favorite pasta and pour this sauce on top. A 15-minute dinner! You’ll be hooked!

Oh my, Wendy, it is good to hear from you. Love the recipe you shared. Will put it out on the blog when I get out of airport and land in Dallas, and give the credit to you. Thanks so much for checking out my blog. Give your mom a hug for me! Hugs, Trudy
