Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw cashews
- 3/4 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried dill
- 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon Dried chives
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Place the cashews in a bowl and cover them with hot water. Let them soak for 10 minutes or until softened. Drain the cashews and rinse under cold water.
In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the soaked cashews, water, lemon juice, and apple cider vinegar. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, dried parsley, dried chives, salt, and black pepper to the cashew mixture. Blend again until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
Slowly add the unsweetened almond milk, blending in between, until you reach the desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. If you prefer a tangier ranch, add more lemon juice or apple cider vinegar by the teaspoon.
Transfer the vegan ranch dipping sauce to a bowl or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve as a dip with vegetables, chips, or use as a dressing for salads and wraps. Enjoy!
