Reduce Your Daily Salt Intake

Mildly spicy poblano chiles are roasted to add delicious, smoky flavor to this creamy dressing. Try it on grilled poultry or meat, too.

Makes 1 cup

Ingredients:
2 whole poblano chiles, roasted, peeled, and seeded
4 teaspoons sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon agave syrup or honey
1 garlic clove
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup fresh cilantro

Directions:
In a blender, combine first 5 ingredients (through salt) and 3/4 cup water. Process about 20 seconds or until well-combined but not completely smooth. Add cilantro, and pulse a few times until it is chopped. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. (This recipe makes twice as much dressing as you’ll need for the salad.)
