Creamy Dairy-Free Italian Dressing

Don’t limit this dairy-free dressing to just a salad, it works great on pasta and as an all-purpose dressing on sandwiches loaded with veggies and nondairy cheese. Creamy and very tasty, this is a good dairy-free replacement for store-bought dressing.


Preparation time: 5 minutes


Chilling time: At least 2 hours


Yield: 10 servings (about 1-1/4 cups)


1 cup soy or regular mayonnaise


3 tablespoons plain nondairy milk


1 tablespoon red wine vinegar


2 cloves of garlic, minced


1/2 teaspoon sugar


1/4 teaspoon white pepper


1 teaspoon dried basil leaves or a few fresh leaves, chopped


1 teaspoon dried oregano or a couple of fresh sprigs, chopped



  1. Place all the ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, about 2 minutes.



  2. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving. Keep in the refrigerator for five to seven days.




Add 3 tablespoons more vinegar if you like your dressing a little thinner and more tart.
