Each Tuesday I will be featuring a recipe that has ten ingredients (or less). All ingredients count except salt, pepper, and water and all recipes will be made with less processed, real foods.
Cilantro and lime is such a fantastic, refreshing combination. This is by far one of my all-time favorite homemade dressings. It is modeled after a dressing at the restaurant Cafe Rio. Every time I would go there I would get extra dressing. It was so good I wanted to drink it.
Besides only being able to get this dressing at Cafe Rio, similar flavored, store-bought versions have a lot of ingredients including preservatives and flavoring.
This version is easy to make at home and only has 7 ingredients.
