Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
  • 4 organic avocados
  • 1/4 cup Nutritional Yeast
  • 1/4 cup organic lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon organic lemon zest (microplanes work best for this)
  • 1 teaspoon organic onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon organic garlic powder or 2 cloves fresh garlic, chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped organic Parsley, for garnish

Avocados may be the best superfood out there. They are rich in healthy fats, which are good for your brain and skin, a great source of complex carbohydrates to help with energy and also high in fiber to help maintain a healthy gut microbe balance.

I love this sauce since you can use it as a salad dressing, as a topping for chicken or fish dishes or as a dip for your favorite snack.

Directions

Place all ingredients in food processor and pulse until fully pureed.

If you prefer a chunkier sauce, pulse for less time, for a finer sauce continue pulsing until completely smooth.

This sauce can be used as a dip for veggies or put over zucchini or kelp noodles.
