Vegan avocado green goddess dressing. Salad dressing made from ripe avocado, coconut milk, basil, and vinegar. Vegan, oil-free, and can be made gluten-free by using tamari in place of soy sauce.
Jump to RecipeWe can all agree that avocados and coconut milk are the most delicious things ever invented, right?! Putting them together just seems to make the world a better place.
This vegan avocado green goddess dressing is made without using any oil, but it still has plenty of good natural fats in it from the avocado and coconut milk. To cut the fat and bring some acidity into the dressing I use rice wine vinegar. You can play around with the flavors here and make it however you like it. The mirin gives the dressing a little sweetness and the soy sauce a little umami. I chose to use fresh basil for this recipe, but you can substitute other fresh herbs for a different twist.
The salad element for the vegan avocado green goddess dressing can be whatever you want. I sauteed up mushrooms and onions and deglazed the pan with soy sauce. Added some cooked asparagus, green beans, corn, and edamame. Tossed in some fresh cucumber, avocado, tomatoes, lettuce, and topped with packaged french fried onions for texture. Then I drizzled the vegan avocado green goddess dressing over the whole salad. I’m telling you… you will love this dressing!
