This is a simple dressing with a subtle flavor. The avocado and lime are perfect together. It goes well on steak or even your tacos or taco salad.
You could add a lot of flavors and take this in a number of different directions. A quarter cup of fresh cilantro is a great addition for an herbaceous taste. A tablespoon of minced shallot will give it a nice onion flavor or a touch of spice works. It doesn't take much - only a quarter teaspoon of cumin, chili powder or even a pinch of cayenne pepper.
