I’m still getting the stink eye from the chihuahuas for taking them to the vet Monday for shots and going to work today and not playing with them enough.
And I feel guilty, they just don’t understand that I have to work to feed them!
I fed myself a beautiful kale salad with a creamy and simple avocado ginger dressing packing a tangy flavor and savory depth. This is one of many variations of a ginger dressing that uses avocado for creaminess instead of oil or cream and NuNaturals NuStevia Simple Syrup for a slight sweetness instead of sugar.
Creamy Ginger Dressing
- 1 avocado, seeded and scooped
- 1″ think chunk of fresh ginger
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 2 tbsp. of lemon juice
- 2 tsp. of NuNaturals NuStevia Simple Syrup
- 2 tbsp. miso pastes
- 1/2 cup of water, as needed
Place all ingredients into a high speed blender and blend to a smooth and creamy texture. Serve and enjoy! Makes 4 servings.
The texture is amazingly thick and creamy, almost like guacamole, and was a little work to coat a salad with.
But worth it! This salad has kale, red spinach, radish sprouts, tomato, red bell pepper, and purple carrot – classy!
And the dressing added a great silky texture to the veggies with a savory tang and bright ginger zing.

Every time I see pictures of your little guys together I want to get another chihuahua for my little Gizmo. They’re so damn cute. :)
I just made an avocado dressing this week, so creamy and delicious. I love that you used ginger and miso in this, I’ve got to try this recipe!
