I swear you won't know it's Vegan, Ranch

Everyone loves ranch, but it has such an unhealthy stigma surrounding it. I’m on a mission to dispel that stigma, because with the right ingredients ranch can actually be quite healthy. I believe that when you make something with whole, real ingredients (and in this instance good healthy fats), anything can be healthy!

I set out to make the worlds best vegan ranch and well, not to toot my own horn or anything but I think I succeeded. This ranch is life changing and judging by the way my roommate cleaned the ranch bowl on pizza night, I don’t think I’m alone in this opinion.  You can have it two ways, Traditional or Spicy Chipotle!

I can’t take full credit for it though. None of this would be possible without Sir Kensington’s new vegan mayo, Fabanaise. It really is the star of the show. Their mayo is changing the game because not only is it vegan but it’s made with aquafaba- you know, the juice from your can of chickpeas that you normally toss out? Yeah, that stuff!

 

If you aren’t familiar with Sir Kensington’s get in the know!! I am a huge fan of theirs because they put condiments back on the table, quite literally in my house. They make condiments the way they should be, with real ingredients and no pesky preservatives. I highly recommend the Spicy Ketchup! No corn syrup & low in sugar – just the way I like it.

Fabanaise can be found at Whole Foods and many other natural retailers. To learn more visit their site here
