Have you been craving some of those staples you used to have weekly? Is a creamy salad dressing one of them? This Dairy-Free Cashew Ranch is such a crowd-pleaser.

Now, I’m not going to lie and say it tastes exactly like ranch. BUT, it does taste quite similar, and with raw veggies, I even prefer it to the regular ranch.

I love to use this dressing to dip carrots and celery in or on top of buffalo chicken salad–a recipe for another day.

Dairy-Free Ranch Ingredients

1 cup raw cashews*

3/4 to 1 cup water (depending on how thick you want it)

1 tbsp white vinegar

1 tsp celery seed

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp salt (I like it salty! Cut this in half if you don’t)

Blend until smooth, then add 1-2 tbsp fresh dill and pulse in blender for an additional 15 seconds. 

*If you do not have a high powered blender, soak cashews in water overnight before making this recipe.
