Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves

1 clove garlic, finely minced

1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (use vegan yogurt for a dairy-free alternative)

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon salt (to taste)

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2-3 tablespoons water (as needed for thinning)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocados: Begin by slicing the avocados in half. Carefully remove the pit and use a spoon to scoop the creamy flesh into a blender or food processor.

    Add Ingredients: In the blender, include the packed cilantro leaves, minced garlic, Greek yogurt, freshly squeezed lime juice, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.

      Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until it becomes smooth and creamy. If needed, pause to scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure all ingredients are well combined.

        Adjust Consistency: If the consistency is thicker than you prefer, gradually add 2-3 tablespoons of water, one tablespoon at a time, blending after each addition until the desired creaminess is achieved.

          Taste and Adjust Seasoning: Give the sauce a taste and feel free to adjust the flavor by adding additional salt, pepper, or lime juice according to your taste preference.

            Serve and Garnish: Spoon the creamy avocado cilantro sauce into a serving bowl. For an extra touch, garnish with a few additional cilantro leaves on top.
