Ingredients

1 ripe avocado (peeled, pitted, and roughly chopped)

1 large handful fresh cilantro (finely chopped)

3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

3 tablespoons mayonnaise*

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

Step 1
Place the avocado, cilantro, lime juice, mayonnaise, and salt in the bowl of a food processor and puree until smooth. If your sauce is too thick, add water, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, to thin it to your desired consistency. Season to taste with more salt as needed.
Step 2
If you don't have a food processor, place the avocado, cilantro, lime juice, mayonnaise, and salt in a medium bowl, and use a fork or potato masher to mash until the ingredients are combined. If you prefer a thinner sauce, add water, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, to thin it to your desired consistency. Season to taste.
