Today I am busy making pots of Goo for my baby niece L or Chicklet as she's known to me. lol. Our evening meal is ready to go so all I needed to do as well as the Goo was a topping for my salads for the next couple of days. The kitchen is looking like a disaster zone with all the bowls for the many different Goo's so I needed a simple and very quick dressing.
I had 4 little avocado's sat in my fridge and I had bought some ripe organic limes yesterday which looked very ripe. I also grabbed a bunch of spring onions as I shut the fridge door with my foot! lol. Out came my little blender and I spooned the avocado flesh from three of the little wrinklies as one had died. I hate it when that happens..ah well...I juiced up 1 1/2 of the limes and peeled 2 very tiny cloves of garlic and all got added to the blender. I trimmed and chopped down 3 spring onions and measured out 4 fl oz of water and they got tossed in too. I cracked some black peppercorns into the blender and added a very good slosh of Tabasco and the fingertip ends pinch of low sodium salt and set the blender going.
The results were a very light and creamy dressing that was a vibrant green and also had a little kick to the end of each mouthful. It was lovely on my lunchtime salad and I hope to have it again tomorrow. It took 4 minutes from raiding the fridge to pouring some on my salad. It took me longer taking the photos..lol. OK better get back to the Goo production line...lol.
