Pin to save for later!Ā
Am excited to try this recipe! Been saving my home grown basil to try something special! This is it!! How long will dressing last? I have a giant homegrown Florida, not Haas avocado so I will need double it. Please advise. Thx muchĀ
I find it lasts for 2-3 days. After that, it starts to change color. Probably safe to eat, but it doesn’t look as nice.
Was wondering if you have to use fresh basil?Ā
Yes, you definitely want to use fresh basil in this recipe. If it’s hard to get fresh basil, you could try using storebought pesto and mixing an avocado into it instead. š
