Steps:
- Take one ripe but firm avocado and cut it in half lengthwise. Remove pit.
- *Drizzle the vinegar on the two avocado halves, adding the majority of the balsamic in the little "wells" but drizzle some of the vinegar onto the rest of the avocado halves to avoid oxidation.
- Next add the grapeseed oil or olive oil, in the same manner as the vinegar.
- NOTE: *It is important to add the vinegar as soon as the avocados are cut so that the avocados don't turn brown.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- To select the perfect avocado, look for ones that are deep green or black and slightly soft to the touch.
- If your avocados are not quite ripe, you can place them in a paper bag with an apple or banana to speed up the ripening process.
- If you are making the dressing ahead of time, be sure to store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep for up to 3 days.
- You can use any type of balsamic vinegar you like. A good quality balsamic vinegar will have a rich, complex flavor.
- If you don't have any fresh basil, you can use dried basil instead. Just use about half the amount of dried basil as you would fresh basil.
