Avocado Ranch Dressing
This Avocado Ranch Dressing blends ripe avocado with almond milk, lemon juice, and olive oil, creating a creamy, dairy-free alternative to traditional ranch. Garlic and onion powders alongside dried herbs such as parsley and dill, plus Dijon mustard and a touch of maple syrup, provide balanced savory and slightly sweet notes. The result is a smooth dressing suitable for salads, vegetables, or as a dip.

- 1/2 cup almond milk unsweetened
- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice

- 2 Tablespoons parsley basil or dill (pick your favorite, fresh
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper ground

Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a high-powered blender and process until smooth and creamy, adding more almondmilk if the dressing seems too thick. Once the texture is to your liking, taste and season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
