Creamy Cilantro Lime Jalapeño Dressing

This vibrant, creamy dressing is a bold blend of zesty lime, fresh cilantro (stems and all), and just the right kick of heat from jalapeño. Olive oil adds richness, while maple syrup and a touch of cumin round out the flavors with subtle sweetness and spice. Garlic and avocado bring extra creaminess and depth, making this dressing feel indulgent without being heavy.

It’s perfect drizzled over grain bowls, tacos, grilled veggies, or anything that needs a punch of bright, herbaceous flavor. You can even thin it out with a splash of water or extra lime juice to use it as a zippy sauce or dip. Store leftovers in a jar in the fridge for up to 5 days—but don’t be surprised if it disappears sooner.
