Everything Free Ranch Dressing

My boys have seriously been deprived!  They haven't had ranch dressing in years!  Considering it is my main source and joy of dipping sauce, I have been searching and searching for one that works for them.  A great friend (who also has a kiddo with a similar food journey) shared this recipe with me.  Of course, I tweaked it a bit, but it was FABULOUS!  My dearest husband LOVED it! (shocker).  The kids weren't so sure, but I think it will grow on them.

Everything Free Ranch Dressing

1 cup Vegenaise Dressing and Spread**
1/2 TBSP fresh squeezed lemon juice
4 TBSP coconut milk (or more to get to desired consistency)
1/2 tsp chives (dried)
1/2 tsp dried parsley
1/2 tsp dried dill
1/2 tsp garlic (I love my garlic!)  Use less if it is too strong
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 sea salt
1/8 black pepper freshly ground (optional~ we don't use pepper)


** Vegenaise is my new, favorite product.  Made devil eggs and egg salad with it and my mayonnaise loving sister even said it was tasty!!! and she is REALLY picky about her mayo!


NOTE:  This is really good as a dipping sauce for my zucchini fritters!

  1. Hey! So where do you buy your Vegenaise at? I'm not sure about the pea protein, but I think I would like to try it. And this recipe sounds great!

  2. I buy it at Tailor Made Nutrition. (of course LOL) I haven't seen it anywhere else. It is refrigerated.
