This is probably the first time in over twenty years that I have had ranch dressing. To be honest, I never really liked it that much.
That was before I was vegan. I think that maybe it was the buttermilk that I didn't care for.
I thought it might be time to give Vegan Ranch Dressing a chance. I am so glad that I did because this is one of my new favorite dressings that will be added to my repertoire.
I made this ranch with fresh parsley, chives, and dill. I really think using fresh herbs makes a huge difference.
It is so good that you will want to switch out your store-bought dressing!
I used this dressing as both a dressing and a dip. The herby flavor goes well with so many things, like my Vegetable Fritters, which I like with my Vegan Chipotle Ranch Dressing, but for those of you who don't like it spicy (like kiddos), this is a great alternative.
This Summer I have made a lot of different dressings. First, there was the Turmeric Tahini Dressing, then I made a Vegan Thousand Island Dressing.
Another ranch dressing is my Vegan Hemp Ranch Dressing recipe.

I struggled with the vegan ranch dressing they sell at the store, it had a funny aftertaste. I'm not vegan anymore but I'm a vegetarian that still goes for some vegan options from time to time. I'm gonna try this 🙂 thanks for sharing!
