Toss this vegan ranch dressing with greens or into a Buddha bowl, or serve it as a dip with crudités and other finger foods, such as our Crispy Buffalo Cauliflower Bites! For a thinner consistency that lends itself to drizzling, add a little more plant milk in Step 1.
Note: Fresh herbs give the dressing authentic flavor, but you can certainly use dried herbs in their place. No silken tofu? You can substitute one 15-oz. can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained, plus ½ cup unsweetened, unflavored plant milk for the tofu.
