Homemade salad dressing is so easy to make and so much better for you than store bought. This creamy cilantro lime dressing is so easy to make - all you need is 5 minutes and 6 ingredients.
Tons of fresh flavors in this dressing from the cilantro, garlic, and lime. I love having a batch of this in the fridge for the week. We always have some sort of Mexican dish on our weekly meal plan, so this dressing will always get used. I love in on fajitas, salads, grilled chicken, and grilled veggies.
I use dairy-free Greek yogurt in this dressing, but you can easily sub regular yogurt if you aren't dairy free. There also aren't any added sugars - healthy, easy, and delicious!
Enjoy!
Creamy Cilantro Lime Dressing (dairy Free)
Recipe details
Ingredients
- ▢ 1 bunch cilantro (stems removed)
- ▢ 1/2 cup non-dairy Greek yogurt (plain and unsweetened)
- ▢ 1 large garlic clove
- ▢ 1/4 cup avocado oil
- ▢ 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about 2 large limes)
- ▢ 1/2 tsp. fine sea salt (plus more to taste)
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a food processor and pulse on high for 30-45 seconds, or until ingredients are fully blended.
- If dressing is too thick for your liking, you can add in additional oil to reach desired consistency. Taste and add more salt and/or garlic if needed.
- Pour into a mason jar, or other airtight container, and store in the fridge. Dressing will stay fresh in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Remove cilantro from the larger stems. If a few of the smaller stems remain, that’s okay.
- If you don’t have a food processor, a blender will work. You may end up with some larger pieces of cilantro in the finished dressing when using a blender, but it will still work.
- Some of my favorite ways to enjoy this dressing is with tacos, burritos, burrito bowls, fajitas, quesadillas, salads, grilled chicken, and grilled veggies!

Love all the fresh ingredients!
Can extra virgin olive oil be used instead of avocado oil? Thanks, Dina
