Green goddess dressing

This creamy, herb-packed dressing is a delicious way to get more greens into your day, and it doubles as a dip for raw vegetables. Avocado and yogurt give it a rich texture without mayonnaise.

Ingredients:

• 1 ripe avocado
• 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or 1/4 cup tahini for dairy-free)
• 1 cup packed fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil and chives
• 2 green onions, chopped
• 1 garlic clove
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/4 to 1/2 cup water

Preparation:

• Blend everything except the water in a blender or food processor until smooth.
• Add water a little at a time until it's as thick or thin as you like.
• Taste and adjust the salt and lemon.
• Refrigerate in a sealed jar up to 3 days. The top may darken slightly; just give it a stir.
