- 1 medium mild anaheim chili, roasted and seeded
- 3 tablespoons roasted pumpkin seeds ("pepitas") or 3 tablespoons roasted sunflower seeds
- 1 1/2 cups packed fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 large garlic clove
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup salad oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar or 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

Method
- NOTE: I have also used a combination of vegan mayonnaise, sour cream and/or plain yogurt with this recipe, using up what I have on hand.
- Add all ingredients to blender and blend until smooth. (Or use an hand held immersion blender to blend. ).
- For thinner salad dressing, add more water. Adjust seasonings if necessary.
- The thicker version of this dressing makes a delicious topping for fish tacos, tostadas; or as a dip for tortilla chips, etc.
- Best if prepared at least an hour in advance.
- Yield is estimated.
