On August 8th I started Colleen Patrick Goudreau's 30 Day Vegan Challenege. Other than one slip-up about half-way through I've been vegan since that day. And I've been loving every minute of it. My boyfriend went vegan on the same day, as I do all of the cooking in our house. He was on board, but one of his biggest concerns was finding a replacement for ranch dressing. Personally, I'm not a fan of the stuff, but he uses it almost as much as he uses barbecue sauce. I searched for a few recipes online until I found one that I had all the ingredients for. It took less than 10 minutes to whip up. And this recipe received my boyfriend's stamp of approval.
Vegan Ranch Dressing:
- 1 cup vegan mayo (I used vegenaise by Follow Your Heart)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened, plain soymilk
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 teaspoons fresh parsley, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon dried dill
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper
Whisk together all of the ingredients. Store in the refrigerator. I used an empty agave nectar bottle. For a thinner ranch for salads, use the above recipe. For a slightly thicker ranch for dipping add about 1/4-1/2 cup more mayo.
I might be posting a little less frequently until October 1st, when Vegan Mofo starts up. Since I'm going to try to post every day I need to save up a few recipes.
