Creamy Avocado Dressing

For the avocado dressing I was thinking about starting it off a lot like a guacamole with
plenty of fresh ingredients like cilantro, lime juice and even some jalapeno peppers to add a touch of heat. .. I did make one quick change to the recipe by including some mayonnaise which goes fabulously well with avocados. I have to say that this avocado dressing is amazingly good; nice and creamy so so fresh and vibrant! Now I just need to resist eating it all by the spoonful so that it can make it into the salad!
