Easy Vegan Ranch Dressing (Dairy-Free + Oil-Free Option!)

Delaney Marie
This easy Homemade Vegan Ranch Dressing is creamy, flavorful, and perfect for salads or as a veggie dip.
*Note that From Start to Finish is an estimate that includes making the Oil-Free Vegan Mayo (5 minutes hands-on time, 1 hour passive time). Once the mayo is ready, the ranch comes together in just 5 minutes. If you use store-bought mayo, the whole thing takes only 5–10 minutes!
