I liked this salad quite a bit. Lots of flavor. Make sure you use fresh ingredients to get the flavors to pop.

How long does the dressing keep in the fridge once made?

Stored in the refrigerator, in an air-tight container, it should last for 2-3 days.

Can 1/2 of a lime liquefy the avocado enough?

If you would like a thinner dressing, add water (a tablespoon or two) to achieve the desired consistency
