Blend Ingredients:

In a blender or food processor, combine the ripe avocado, chopped cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.

Blend the ingredients until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. If the dressing is too thick, you can add water, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired thickness.

Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt substitute, pepper, or lime juice if needed.

Transfer the dressing to a sealed container and refrigerate until ready to use. This dressing is best when served fresh, but it can be stored for a day or two.
