Homemade Creamy Avocado Dressing

Whenever I can get avocados on sale, I buy a lot of them. I used them for guacamole (my favorite), or sliced on sandwiches, or I'll make this great creamy avocado dressing.

I found this recipe over on the Chilean Avocado industry site. They have lots of great avocado recipes. Go check them out.

1. Spoon avocado into a blender. Add the remaining ingredients, starting with 1/2 cup of the buttermilk. Puree until very smooth, adding more buttermilk until you get the desired consistency.
