Avocado-Herb Dressing

This is a refreshing dressing recipe I wanted to try since avocados are one of my favorite foods, and for some reason, they make me think of summer which is right around the corner. It's perfect over a Mexican-style salad, and I'm even thinking if you use two avocados, this could make a mean guacamole recipe, too.

Avocado-Herb Dressing

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsle
1 Tbsp chopped fresh chives
1 tsp chopped fresh tarragon
1 tsp anchovy paste
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 ripe, peeled avocado
1 clove garlic, minced
2 Tbsp water
1 Tbsp white wine vinegar
3 drops hot sauce

Combine first 10 ingredients in a food processor; process until smooth. With the processor running, pour water, vinegar and hot sauce through food chute, processing until blended. Store the dressing in an airtight container in refrigerator.
