How to make easy basil pesto salad dressing
My favorite salad dressing for salads is just plain olive oil. This is why basil pesto (which has olive oil as one of its ingredients) makes a perfect salad dressing for my avocado salad.
- To make the dressing, just combine fresh basil pesto (I used ¼ cup) with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
- After you add the dressing to the salad, season the salad with salt and pepper, to taste.
