Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small clove garlic (crushed*)
  • 35 ml lime juice
  • ½ teaspoon sugar**
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne**
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 large handful baby spinach

Instructions

  • Place all the ingredients into a blender with 100ml water and whizz, adding more water as necessary, until you have a thick, smooth dressing.

Notes

*For a low FODMAP diet replace 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and the garlic clove with 1 tablespoon of garlic infused oil.
**For a Paleo diet replace the sugar with agave and omit the cumin and cayenne.
For a Caribbean version, switch the cumin, oregano and cayenne for ½ teaspoon each of allspice, thyme and powdered ginger, or make it Mediterranean by leaving out the cumin and cayenne, switching the lime juice to lemon juice and adding in a small handful of fresh basil leaves.
