Vegan Ranch Dressing  (Soy Free)

The inspiration for this dressing came from the Rawtarian - a great site to scope out raw food recipes.

I love simple, and my Ninja IQ does make life easier when eating raw. If you have a great blender this should blend up smooth and creamy.  A tip is to soak the cashews for a period of time before blending to help your blender work more efficiently.


Ingredients

·         1 1/4 cups cashews – soak cashew for an hour prior
·         3/4 cup water (or a little more)
·         3 tablespoons lemon juice
·         1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
·         1/3 cup organic extra virgin olive oil
·         3 tablespoons raw honey
·         2 cloves fresh garlic
·         1 thin slice onion or 2 T. minced onion
·         1 teaspoon dried dill or tablespoon of fresh, chopped
·         1 teaspoon fine grain Celtic or Himalayan sea salt


Throw it all into a blender and blend away until smooth. Easy and delicious!
