Green Goddess Avocado Sauce

Green Goddess Avocado Sauce!!! Light, healthy and packed with flavor, you’ll be making this Green Goddess Avocado Sauce every chance you get! Enjoy with raw or roasted veggies, pita bread, crackers and more! Spread this on sandwiches and in wraps too! It’s so good!

Back in January, I did the Cooking Light 3 Day Detox and was introduced to this Green Goddess Avocado Sauce. It’s so good, I can’t stop making it. I made this recipe originally (the lemon chicken citrus bowl shown below, it’s freaking delicious, you must try it!) and since then, I just make the sauce. Like, all the time.

This Green Goddess Avocado Sauce is so good, so easy to make and so versatile! Enjoy it with raw or roasted veggies, pita bread, crackers and more! Spread this on sandwiches and in wraps too! It’s so good!

Or, make a platter of all of your favorite things like I did here. If I could eat everything off of a board, I would.

Hope you try the recipe!

"Avocados are nutrition heavy-hitters, boasting nearly 20 vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients. The fruit is also rich in fiber, heart-healthy unsaturated fats, and plant sterols which can help lower cholesterol. When blended into a bright, herbaceous sauce, they breathe life into humble rice dishes and make salads sing. Both bright from the herbs and floral from the coriander, this sauce adds color and flavor when used as a dressing or dip." - Cooking Light.
