Ingredients

  • 1 Ripe avocado
  • ¾ cup unsweetened, unflavored plant milk I used oat milk
  • 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ cup fresh dill, chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  • Add the apple cider vinegar and plant milk; stir and set a side for a few minutes.
  • Remove the pit from the avocado and spoon the avocado flesh from the skin and place into a blender cup.
  • Add all the ingredients except for the fresh dill and parlsey.
  • Blend until smooth.
  • If you desire a thinner dressing, add a littlemore plant milk and blend.
  • Continue to add as much plant milk as needed to reach the texture and consistency you desire.
  • Then, add the chopped dill and parsley and stir into the dressing.
  • Transfer the avocado dressing to a ball jar or container with a top and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • The dressing will last in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Notes

  • If you desire a gluten-free option, choose from a wide range of plant-based milks, such as almond, soya, oat, and coconut. 
  • Of course, if you have fresh dill and need dried, or dried dill and need fresh, it's easy to make the substitute! Here's the substitution ratio for substituting fresh and dried herbs: Ratio: 1 Tablespoon fresh dill = 1 teaspoon dried dill.
  • White vinegar is a great substitution if you don't have apple cider vinegar. 
  • Avocado ranch dressing is great as a salad dressing, dip, sandwich spread, or topping for cooked vegetables. I like it inside a potato as well.
