Dairy Free Ranch Dressing

JANUARY SPECIAL: Get 2 pounds FREE Wild Alaskan Salmon!  My favorite online butcher is giving away free salmon this month from the pristine waters of Bristol Bay, Alaska. Some of the best salmon I've had!! Get the details at BUTCHER BOX. 

There is nothing like a creamy, garlicky homemade salad dressing. This healthy dairy free ranch dressing is made from all real food ingredients and is super easy to make. 

So I have a thing for homemade mayo.  I make it almost every week and love to eat it on everything. Since I tend to eat a really simple diet, I rely heavily on tasty condiments to keep things interesting. One of my favorite things to do with homemade mayonnaise is to make dairy free ranch dressing.

My ranch dressing is all about the fresh herbs.  I love the flavors of fresh parsley, dill, and chives.  I’ve even started a small herb garden in my kitchen window to have fresh herbs whenever I want them.

The base for my ranch dressing is the homemade mayonnaise.  If you don’t have a recipe, you can find one HERE.  I simply add a bit of full fat coconut milk (homemade coconut milk or any nut milk will work as well), apple cider vinegar, garlic, and fresh herbs. So easy. It’s ready to eat in just minutes.  I have found, however, that it does taste extra good if you let it sit for a few hours in the fridge.

Oh, and if you don’t have fresh herbs on hand, dried herbs will work just fine for this recipe. See notes in recipe.

Drizzle it on your favorite salads.  Use it as a dip for sweet potato fries. Pour it over your favorite burger.  Or smother your breakfast eggs and greens with it.  Any way that you eat, it will be delicious.  I promise!

Enjoy!
