Ultra Easy Avocado Sauce or Dip

Ingredients

  • 2 medium or 3 small ripe avocados
  • 1-2 green onions, very thinly sliced
  • 3 T fresh-squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tsp. celery salt, or more
  • 2 tsp. Green Tabasco sauce
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cumin

Directions

  1. Halve the avocados, take out the pits, and spoon the flesh into a food processor fitted with the metal blade.
  2. Add the sliced scallions and lemon juice, then blend until the scallions are minced small and everything is evenly mixed.
  3. Pour in the buttermilk, then add the celery salt, Green Tabasco Sauce, and ground cumin. Process again until the sauce is completely smooth.
  4. Taste, then adjust with extra Green Tabasco or celery salt if you think it needs a little more punch.
  5. Use it immediately, or refrigerate it for a few hours before serving.
  6. Any leftover Avocado Sauce or Dip will keep for several days in the refrigerator.
