Vegan Ranch Dressing – Easy Vegan Ranch Dip
My kids have been vegan their whole lives, so naturally there are just some foods that they have never had. However, I try my best to create vegan alternatives for all the foods that I loved as a child.
For some reason, ranch dressing got overlooked, that is until I was volunteering in my oldest son’s Kindergarten class during a day when they were served carrot sticks and celery for a snack. Every kid there would only eat the veggies if they were dipped in ranch.

1 tsp dry parsley or herb of choice or 1 tbsp fresh herbs

¾ tsp garlic powder or 1 clove of fresh garlic
½ tsp salt
3 tsp white vinegar
2-3 tsp water until desired thickness or no extra water for dip
Fresh ground pepper to taste

Blend for about 30 seconds.
Add water a teaspoon at a time, blending between each one until desired thickness.
Store in an air tight container or bottle in the fridge.
Recipe Notes
Soy milk works best for this recipe since it has protein that will react with the vinegar and cause it to thicken.
The thickness of this dressing will depend on your choice of plant milk.
You may not need additional water. Add the water slowly until you reached the desired thickness.
Omit the water for vegan ranch dip.
