Begin by soaking the cashews. Place 0.5 cup of cashews in a bowl and cover them with water. Allow them to soak for at least 2 hours.
Once the cashews have soaked, drain and rinse them under cold water.
In a high-speed blender, combine the soaked cashews, coconut milk, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, dried parsley, dried chives, sea salt, black pepper, and 0.5 cup of water.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy. This should take about 2 to 3 minutes, depending on your blender.
Once fully blended, taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lemon juice to your taste.
Pour the paleo ranch sauce into a jar or airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve the sauce cold as a dip for vegetables, with chicken wings, or use it as a salad dressing. Enjoy!
