Zesty Ranch Dressing

This zesty ranch dressing has a bit of a kick due to the addition of hot sauce and chili powder. It is great on any salad or as a spicy dip.

The dressing comes together quickly and will keep in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

A note on some of the ingredients

Plain vegan yogurt: I prefer vegan yogurt that is oat based as the taste is very mild. As always, ensure that any yogurt is gluten free. Any coconut based yogurt tends to have a slight hint of coconut flavor which would not work well in this recipe. If you can’t find plain vegan yogurt you can substitute it with vegan mayonnaise or silken tofu.

Vegan Mayonnaise: I use Hellman’s vegan mayonnaise which is also gluten free.

Hot Sauce: I use Frank’s hot sauce for this recipe. You can add more or less hot sauce depending on your preference for spice.

Fresh Chives: I use fresh chives throughout the summer months because they are one of the few herbs I am able to grow with minimal effort. Dried chives also work in this recipe, just adjust the measurement from 2 – 3 tbsp to 1 – 2 tbsp.
