in my kitchen | green goddess mayo

7.20.2014

we had friends in town on saturday night and i made pork and chorizo burgers. instead of slathering plain ol' mayo on the buns and risking the chance of seeming impossibly boring, i made a green goddess 'mayo' instead. luckily, i had a ton left over to use as a dip to entice mo to eat her veggies. 

so, so very good. 
Green Goddess Mayo
(makes about two cups)

oh! and guess what?! 
this 'mayo' is vegan and substantially healthier for you than regular mayo.
well played, c, well played. 

what:

one avocado

handful of cilantro
handful of basil
three or four scallions
one small shallot
juice of one large lemon
juice of one lime
1/2 can diced green chiles 
one garlic clove
1/4-1/2 cup of extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste

how:
place everything, minus the EVOO, into a food processor or blender with a pour opening. pulse until fairly combined. slowly add in the EVOO until emulsified and your desired texture is achieved. *more EVOO for a dressing-like viscosity, less for more of a dip. 

use it on everything!
