This cool, creamy and easy dressing is seriously next level! I have been making it for years now and it’s a must have on just about any Mexican style dish in my home.
Just a handful of ingredients, thick and indulgent but contains zero oil, soy, gluten or dairy. Drizzle it on anything from tacos, burrito bowls, salads or perhaps just a plain old bowl of black beans. Yep, I’ve definitely done it.
