Vegan Thousand Island Dressing

When I think about secret sauce, my vegan thousand island dressing recipe comes to mind. Not only does vegan thousand island dressing taste great on a salad, but thousand island dressing is also great on sandwiches and burgers. Furthermore, a thousand island dressing can also be a dip for vegetables as well.

In order to master vegan thousand island dressing, all you need is the ingredients in my Vegan French Dressing recipe, and then simply add diced dill pickles. Yes, the true secret is the pickles. Although some people prefer sweet pickles, I prefer dill pickles. But, the choice is yours. 

In fact, I use vegan thousand island dressing on my Vegan Tempeh Reuben. Regardless of your sandwich, salad, or dips, vegan thousand island dressing is the secret sauce you are in search of.

WHAT'S IN VEGAN THOUSAND ISLAND DRESSING? 

• Raw cashews 
• Organic ketchup
• Apple cider vinegar
• Agave (you can sub maple syrup)
• Salt
• Pepper
• Water
• Pickles (sweet or dill)

In fact, without the pickles, vegan thousand island dressing is simply Vegan French Dressing. So, if you don't like pickles, just skip them and still enjoy the yum of secret sauce. 

VEGAN THOUSAND ISLAND DRESSING: PERFECT FOR LOTS OF RECIPES

Since I love sauce, why not make healthy sauces at home? 

For instance, vegan thousand island goes perfect on a Vegan Tempeh Reuben sandwich. 

Instead of using Vegan Cashew Mayo on a Vegan BLT, use vegan thousand island dressing instead.

Additionally, choose your favorite salad, like my Roasted Vegetable Salad, and give it a little thousand island love.

Another one of my favorite recipes to top with secret sauce is my Beet Burger recipe. 

Furthermore, this dressing is also a yummy dip for your favorite veggies! My favorites, for instance, are carrots and celery.
