How to make Creamy Dill Pickle Sauce
This recipe comes together in just 5 minutes (or even less). Nothing to cut! Here are the ingredients you will need:
- Dill pickle juice: most pickle lovers will prefer their favorite brand. I like Trader Joe’s cornichons or Claussen pickles. Feel free to use your personal favorite!
- Avocado: the avocado will allow for a creamy dressing that also contains fiber and healthy fats! It retains its bright green color as well.
- Garlic Powder: You can also use minced garlic instead of garlic powder
- fresh dill: since you’re a pickle lover, you’ll want that extra dill flavor!
- Oil: I use avocado oil as my preferred salad oil. Olive oil is also a great option here.
- Chopped pickles: can add a bit of texture here, but this is optional.
Place all ingredients in a food processor or blender, and puree until smooth. There he is!

How long can you store dill pickle sauce?
Because of the avocado, this dressing will only last 3-5 days in the fridge.
