The Real Green Goddess Dressing is a vibrant and creamy dressing bursting with fresh, herbaceous flavors. It begins with finely chopped tarragon, chervil, and parsley, each adding their unique aromatic notes. Green onions lend a subtle sharpness, while ripe Cal Flavor Avocados provide a rich, velvety base. Skim milk and cold water create a smooth, light texture, perfectly balancing the dressing’s richness. Anchovies introduce a savory depth, complemented by the bright acidity of freshly juiced and zested lemons. Sea salt enhances the natural flavors, and a touch of crushed black pepper adds a gentle kick, making this dressing a versatile and delightful addition to any salad or dish.
