So often we choose to have a “healthy choice” at lunch or dinner by opting to eat a salad; however, many times we unknowingly consume more calories than intended. This is due to the high-calorie content of most dressings. The benefit to this Raw Vegan Ranch Dressing is that it has only 50 calories per 2 tablespoons, a number significantly less than the 145 calories contained in the typical “Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing.”
Yield: 3 cups (Serves 24)
Ingredients
2 cups almond milk
1 cups cashews, soaked 4 hours, rinsed and drained
½ cup minced parsley
½ cup minced red onion
2 tablespoons flax oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon dry dill weed
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
2 dates, pitted
1 teaspoon Himalayan Pink salt
Pinch of white pepper
Instructions
Blend all of the ingredients until smooth.
Store in a sealed glass jar in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Bookmarked this recipe for future reference. This will be a nice alternative to the bottled low fat balsamic vinegarette dressings. Thank you for sharing.
