Having a solid repertoire of delicious vegan salad dressing recipes is crucial to enjoying more salads on a daily basis. When we can make meal-sized vegan salads to take to work, or enjoy on a hot summer evening, we are maxing our nutrition intake and flavor enjoyment.
We want to have creamy dressings, we want to have savory dressings, we want to have sweet-tangy dressings… we want all the options!
There are more and more prepared salad dressings in stores that are vegan – and some are even mostly whole foods based – but it’s always good to have recipes to make our own. That way, we know exactly what’s going in there, and we can tweak it to our individual tastes.
6 Delicious & (mostly) Oil-Free Vegan Salad Dressing Recipes:
basil-tahini dressing: using a creamy base of tahini+AVC/lemon juice, you can flavor this with fresh basil, or try it with curry-inspired flavors
peach & white balsamic dressing: this is a sweet-tangy dressing that’s perfect for summer salads, when peaches or nectarines are in season.
sesame-miso dressing: toss with savoy cabbage, carrots and edamame beans for an asian coleslaw, or use it for stir fries or noodle bowls.
white bean & roasted red pepper: essentially a bean dip, thinned out to make a dressing, this is a protein-packed way to flavor your salad.
creamy avocado dressing: pair it with massaged kale, spiralized/grated raw beets and/or jicama
creamy caesar dressing: pair it with classic caesar salad fixings, or branch out with kale and chickpeas and whole grain pasta!
