    I make my own Cilantro Lime dressing. I found a recipe I love.

    Ingredients
    1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and coarsely chopped
    1 clove garlic
    3/4 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
    1/4 cup lime juice
    1/3 cup honey
    2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
    1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste1/4 cup packed cilantro leaves
    1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oilDirections
    1.Place the jalapeno pepper, garlic clove, and ginger into a food processor or blender; pulse until the jalapeno and garlic are finely chopped. Pour in the lime juice, honey, balsamic vinegar, and salt, add the cilantro leaves; pulse a few times to blend. Turn the food processor or blender on, and slowly drizzle in the olive oil until incorporated into the dressing. Season to taste with salt before serving.

    However, I've made some small changes: I use the whole entire bunch of cilantro in it, only put 1/4 cup of olive oil, and a tablespoon of honey instead of the whole 1/3 cup. It comes out almost as good and is much healthier.
