The Rawtarian's Thoughts

By The Rawtarian

Don't believe me that this could taste as good as old-school SAD (standard American diet) ranch? Just try it. I dare ya :)

Raw ranch dressing is another one of those things that I cannot believe it's possible to replicate raw. But, hallelujah, it is possible.

There is nothing like a nice fresh carrot dipped in raw ranch dressing, no?

And I have even had the pleasure of dipping my raw vegan pizza in raw ranch dressing. "Cue heavenly harp sound...."

So here's my favourite raw ranch dressing recipe for you... I use it basically like a normal salad dressing or dip. I usually make one batch and serve it as a vegetable dip, salad dressing and maybe even on a few more exciting things, like in a raw vegan BLT sandwich or dip raw pizza in it if I am feeling particularly daring.

Of course, you also know that the best vegetables to dip in raw ranch dressing are carrots and broccolli, right?

OMG! This is the best raw dressing I have tried to date! I have been having a hard time finding a good one. I left out the olive oil to make it less fattening since it already had so many cashews and I found it to be just perfect! I also used only one tbsp of maple syrup and it was just sweet enough. I think 3 would have overdone it. Thank you so much for all of your creative yet simple recipes! We will be having a huge garden salad tonight with this dressing and cream of celery soup! So excited!

Hi Jenna,

You can omit the lemon from this recipe - perhaps consider adding a bit more apple cider vinegar instead for added acidity

I adore this recipe. I make it all the time and eat a huge salad every day with this delicious ranch dressing. It really does taste like regular ranch dressing. Because I don't have a high-speed blender, I use my food processor. I process the cashews first to a nut butter consistency then add the other ingredients and process. I am curious if anyone has tried omitting the sweetener altogether and if it worked okay?

Hi Faith - Thanks for your comment. It's insights like yours that make this place great :)

It's probably fine without the sweetener. But not quite as good! But still fine :)

Holy Guacamole this is good! I made mine with raw cashew butter I bought last week. Good thing too cause I don't own a high speed blender and I killed a food processor trying to make almond butter in the past. I only used 1/3 of the agave syrup though, this cashew butter is made with coconut oil so it's sweet on its own. Here's the link for anyone interested http://www.paleocottage.com/#!product/prd1/1877947785/cashew-butter
