Creamy Avocado Caesar Dressing

Creamy and smooth with a rich texture, this avocado Caesar dressing is perfectly balanced with lemon, parmesan, and garlic for a fresh, savory finish.

Some nights call for dinner that feels lighter but still tastes really good. With salmon in the fridge and vegetables already cooking, I wanted something creamy to bring everything together without reaching for a bottle from the store.

That is where this creamy avocado Caesar comes in. It has all the classic Caesar flavors from parmesan, Dijon, lemon, garlic, and Worcestershire. The avocado adds a silky, fresh finish that makes the whole dish feel complete.

I use a whole avocado because it gives the dressing the best texture and makes it feel a little more filling. An immersion blender makes this especially easy, creating a smooth, creamy dressing in seconds with minimal cleanup.

You can thin it with a little water for drizzling over bowls or keep it thicker for salads and wraps. I like making a batch at the start of the week and using it in a few different ways as the days go on.

How I Like to Use It

• Drizzle it over salmon bowls with roasted sweet potatoes and green beans.
• Toss it with romaine for a quick Caesar salad.
• Use it as a dip for chicken, roasted potatoes, or veggie trays.
• Spread it on wraps or sandwiches in place of mayo.
