Place the cilantro, lime juice, honey, garlic, olive oil, avocado oil, water, avocado, salt, pepper, and jalapeno (if using) in a blender.
Blend on low speed for a few seconds to break up the ingredients, then slowly increase the speed to high (you want to go slowly to maintain the funnel created by the blender, otherwise some pieces might splatter upward and not blend).
Puree on high speed for 30-60 seconds, or until the dressing looks very smooth. Scrape down the sides of the blender incase any ingredients are stuck to the side, then puree for an additional 10-30 seconds.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasonings if desired. You can add more lime, oil, salt, pepper, honey, jalapeño, etc. Just go slowly, because it’s easier to add than subtract!
Use dressing immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 24 to 48 hours.
Notes
Extra virgin olive oil is slightly bitter, so it might create a bitter taste aftertaste. Offsetting with a neutral oil like avocado or grapeseed will create a more balanced flavor profile. However, you can use all olive oil and omit the avocado oil.If you’re concerned with that fat/calorie content, you can increase the amount of water and equally decrease the amount of oil. I recommend using at least half of the oil for texture purposes.Taste the avocado before adding it to the blender. Older avocados can develop an unpleasant flavor. Ideally, you want to use a fresh tasting avocado!Some recipes use plain yogurt in place of avocado for creaminess. You can do this, but keep in mind that yogurt has a tangy flavor, so that combined with limes will create more acidic results.If you want less sweetness, try decreasing the honey to 1 or 1 1/2 tablespoons. Taste; add more if you think the dressing needs it.
