Ranch Dressing inspired by Johnny Freesh of Raw Food Bali

Ingredients:

         1 cup Cashews (soaked)

         1 cup Water

         1 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar

         ½ tsp Onion Powder

         ½ tsp Garlic Powder

         2 ½ tsp Dried Parsley

         1 ½ tsp Dried Basil

         1 ½ tsp Dried Sage

         2 tsp Lemon Juice

   1 ½ tsp Salt

        

Process for Dressing:

Soak your cashews for at least two hours prior. Then combine all dressing ingredients in a blender/vitamix and blend until smooth and creamy.

Tip: Refrigerate dressing after blending,overnight or at least 1 or 2 hours, this allows the dressing to thicken up, so I recommend this step.

Makes about 1 ¼ cups dressing.

End result super delish.. Pile salad mix onto a plate, drizzle on your dressing, then load on your toppings, Kinda Bacon, Kitz flax Herb & Garlic cracker & nutritional yeast. Yummo!
