    vegan green goddess dressing

    Whenever I plan a meal, I always include a giant salad. Instead of a salad tonight, I made a vegan green goddess dressing for a crudité platter to serve dinner. On Sundays, I prepare a big meal, as well as meal prep for the week. Today, the beautiful weather inspired me to make a vegan green goddess dressing to accompany the fresh vegetables at the farmers market yesterday.

    Every weekend, we visit a variety of farmer's markets around the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. This past weekend, we went to the Uptown Phoenix Market and the Downtown Phoenix Farmer's Market. 

    Even though I typically serve salad with dinner, today, I'm mixing it up. Green goddess dressing is not only a great dip, but it also makes a fabulous salad dressing.

    What ingredients are in this yummy green goddess dressing recipe? 

    vegan green goddess ingredients

    • Avocado
    • Vegan buttermilk (oat milk + 1 Tablespoon of apple cider vinegar)
    • Non-dairy unsweetened, plain yogurt
    • Chives
    • Dill
    • Parsley
    • Basil
    • Tarragon
    • Garlic
    • Lemon juice
    • Salt
    • Pepper
    • Capers 
    • Extra chives for garnish (optional)

    Although dried herbs may replace fresh herbs, I  suggest using fresh herbs whenever possible. The general rule when using dried herbs instead of fresh herbs is to use half the amount of dried herbs than fresh herbs.

    How to make vegan buttermilk and make the dressing

    To make vegan buttermilk, add apple cider vinegar to plain, unsweetened plant-milk and allow to sit for 10 minutes to curdle. 

    Once curdled, add all the ingredients to a high-speed blender, and blend until smooth. Next, refrigerate until completely chilled and garnish with chopped chives or a favorite herb of choice.

    What does vegan green goddess dressing taste like? 

    Vegan green goddess dressing is similar to Grilled Caesar Salad dressing -- with a tangy, herby twist! It's fresh, flavorful, and the perfect companion for vegetables and crisp lettuce greens.

    In fact, green goddess dressing tastes like spring! It's fresh, clean, and fabulous! 

    What does green goddess dressing go well with? EVERYTHING
