Ingredients

  • 3 Tbs Plant Milk plus more as needed to thin. I use homemade cashew milk
  • 3/4 C (165g) Mayonnaise vegetarian or vegan, I like Veganease
  • 2 1/2 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Granules or 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Fine Sea Salt
  • 1 Pinch Ground Black Pepper
  • 2 tsp Fresh Dill chopped
  • 2 tsp Fresh Parsley chopped fine, curly or flat leaf
  • 2 tsp Fresh Chives chopped fine

Instructions

  • In a small mixing bowl, add the non dairy milk, mayo, lemon juice, garlic granules, onion powder, salt, pepper, dill, parsley, and chives. Whisk until all the ingredients come together creating a smooth texture.
  • If a thinner dressing is desired, add another splash or two of milk.
  • Rest the dressing in the fridge for at least 30 minutes so the flavors have time to marry. It will thicken as it rests in the fridge. If using dried herbs, give the dressing at least one hour so the herbs have time to fully hydrate.
  • Store the dressing in a lidded container in the fridge for up to a week. Stir or shake before using as it tends to separate.

Notes

**If you're making homemade ranch dressing with dried herbs, simply use half the amount called for in the recipe with exception to chives.
