Creamy Ginger Dressing

January 22, 2015 by christine

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!
