Green Goddess Dip

Steps:

Wash hands and surfaces.
Wash jalapeño, scallions, basil, and cilantro.
On a clean cutting board with a sharp knife, slice open the jalapeño and remove the seeds. Cut off the ends of the scallions; cut into medium pieces. Slice open the avocado and remove the pit and skin. Cut off the dirty ends of the stems of the herbs.
Add all of these ingredients to a blender along with the block of tofu, honey, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and olive oil. Blend until smooth. about 2 minutes.
If you want a thinner consistency to use as a salad dressing, add more olive oil until you get the consistency you like.
Serve and enjoy with crackers, veggies, etc.
