Creamy Ranch Dressing
This dressing will blow your vegan mind. It’s creamy, fresh and tangy with just the right amount of herby deliciousness. The miso replaces the salt and adds a dose of probiotics, too!
Ingredients
1-1½ cups raw cashews
1 cup water
1 TBS apple cider vinegar (or red wine vinegar)
1 TBS white miso
1/4 cup vegan cream cheese (you can use store bought but I prefer my homemade cultured cashew cream cheese HERE)
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp onion powder
1 TBS chopped fresh parsley
1 TBS chopped fresh dill
1 tsp dried summer savory (or sub any herb you prefer)
Method
Place all ingredients, except the herbs and cream cheese, in a blender with one cup of the water.
Blend until smooth.
If you prefer a thinner dressing, add more water to your liking.
Add love! 💗
Add remaining ingredients and blend just a bit until mixed.
Makes about 2 cups. Enjoy!
NOTE: If you don’t have a high-powered blender, soak the cashews for about 3 hours first, then drain and rinse prior to blending. But if you really want to experience the best sauces, gravies, soups and of course smoothies, a Vitamix is a must! I’ve owned one for years and they are absolutely the best. 😊
