For this delicious yogurt-avocado dressing recipe, tangy Greek yogurt combines with creamy avocado, lime juice, and an herbal trio of chives, cilantro, and parsley. Use it to dress a classic shrimp and greens salad.

by Kim Laidlaw

1Put the avocado, yogurt, herbs, and lime zest and juice into a blender and process until smooth.
2Taste and season with salt. Add water by the tablespoon to get it to the consistency you like (it should be pourable).
3Set aside if making the salad right away, or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day.

This Vegan Restaurant Wants to Make You Rich — "Plant Rich," That Is

(02:39)

Video from Universal Eats

Café Gratitude, a small vegan chain from California, has an interesting concept to improve the future of our planet. Meatless Monday deals and offerings across the country show no signs of slowing down. Growing concern over both the quality of mass-processed meats along with climate change and the humane treatment of animals, is inspiring folks to adopt vegan habits, at least part-time anyways. The café took a step ahead by offering 50% off on their most popular dishes every Monday for a limited time, as an incentive for diners, while trying to motivate other restaurants to follow the model. Café Gratitude’s motto “Be plant rich” means they want you to live a rich life mostly on plants.
