Ranch dressing was always my favorite—until I began to look for healthier substitutions. My friend Flo served me some of hers not long ago and I am back to enjoying ranch dressing. Here’s my version. Experiment. Enjoy.

Ingredients

• 1 cup Just Mayo or Vegenaise®
• ½ cup unsweetened almond or almond-coconut milk
• ½ tbsp chopped fresh or dried chives
• 1 tsp chopped fresh or dried parsley
• 1 tsp lemon juice, if desired
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp chicken-like seasoning
• ½ tsp onion powder
• ¼ tsp dried dill weed
• ¼ tsp sea salt
• ¼ tsp ground black pepper

Preparation

Place all ingredients in deep mixing bowl. Use hand blender and blend until smooth. Add more almond milk, a tablespoon at a time, if thinner consistency is desired.

Serving

Pour into a bowl and serve.

Keeps for up to seven days in the refrigerator.
