Nuts and avocados are my two most loved normal fats for any dinner, yet particularly a dressing. They make the dressings rich and furthermore include a decent flavor.
The 3 dressings we are making today are an asian dressing, an avocado herb dressing and a smooth cashew dressing.
Make one (or these) on a Sunday and you will have dressings for the whole week prepared to go in the cooler.
