Instructions:
1. Blend the Dressing - Add the cilantro, garlic, lime juice, vegan mayo or dairy-free yogurt, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to a blender or food processor. If using jalapeño, add it now. Blend on high until completely smooth and creamy.
2. Adjust the Consistency - With the blender running, add water one tablespoon at a time until the dressing reaches your desired consistency. For a thicker dip-style dressing use less water. For a pourable dressing add both tablespoons.
3. Taste and Adjust - Taste and adjust salt, lime juice, or garlic as needed. Add more cilantro for a stronger herb flavor or more jalapeño for extra heat.
4. Serve or Store - Use immediately or transfer to a sealed jar and refrigerate until ready to use. The flavors deepen after 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
