Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by gathering all your ingredients: mayonnaise, ripe avocado, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and olive oil.
  2. In a mini food processor or a small blender, combine the mayonnaise, flesh of the ripe avocado, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Blend on high for about 30 seconds until smooth.
  3. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuing to blend on low for about 30-45 seconds until the dressing is creamy yet pourable.
  4. Taste the dressing and adjust seasonings as needed. Blend again briefly to mix any adjustments thoroughly.
  5. Serve immediately or transfer to an airtight container. Press plastic wrap onto the surface of the dressing to prevent browning if storing.
