Ranch Dressing
So many of our favourite recipes from before we went nutritarian contained good old full fat ranch dressing. Whether it was on a salad, in a sandwich, or as dip for veggies, ranch was a mainstay in our home. I had a goal of recreating a collection of our favourite dressings and ranch was a top priority. It was no surprise though that it is the one that has taken me the longest to create. We hope you enjoy this full flavoured nutritarian style, guilt free Ranch Dressing as much as we do. Share it with your kids on a beautiful green salad with tomatoes, cucumbers and carrots, as a fun dip for veggies or with our Favourite FishTaco’s!
Ranch Dressing (Nutritarian)
From: Mommy Kristi
After many tweaks and taste tests, we have created a ranch style dressing that we are satisfied with, not just because it tastes good but because it is essentially guilt free. Hope you enjoy this smooth creamy take on nutritarian style ranch.
