First post!
Last night I decided to make a dressing to use in hubby's lunches - figuring out what to pack for his lunches may prove to be the most challenging part of the Whole 30 for me - his lunches have been pretty much a turkey sandwich with provolone and Hellman's Light, Macaroni Salad, Chex Mix and a couple Pepperoncini peppers since I stopped packing him bento lunches...
Anyway... I came across a recipe (thanks to Pinterest) for a Paleo Avocado Ranch Dressing over on tgipaleo - I'm one of those people who tends not to measure; especially when it comes to herbs, spices etc. So of course, I didn't measure them - I'd say I used more dill, salt and pepper - I also used green onions instead of chives as that's what I had on hand (I have garlic chives in my garden, but they are buried in snow and dead for the season :P)
Note: Be sure to check those labels! Your coconut milk shouldn't have guar gum, it should really only contain coconut and water
