Lighter Green Goddess Dressing
This makes a thick, creamy dressing that is delicious for a vegetable dip or to dress a salad. If you like a thinner dressing, you can drizzle a little olive oil and vinegar onto your salad along with the Green Goddess. You can bump up the healthy fats in this by adding 1/2 medium ripe avocado and cutting the mayo down to 1/4 cup.
