- Mayo. I used my cashew mayo recipe but your favorite brand of mayo is also a great option.
- Plant-Based Milk. Use unsweetened unflavored non-dairy milk. Any brand and variety will do —oat, almond, soy, etc.
- Lemon juice. Freshly squeezed lemon juice is best. To replace, use apple cider vinegar.
- Dill weed. For this ranch recipe, I went with dried dill but fresh can be used if you have it.
- Parsley. I also went with dried parsley to keep the recipe simple and versatile. However, it can be replaced with finely chopped fresh parsley.

FAQs
Yes, but you may need to use less lemon juice. Start by only mixing in the dry seasonings. Then, add the lemon juice to taste.
Yes! Add more non-dairy milk to thin out the dip to dressing consistency. The consistency should be thin enough to easily pour off of a spoon.
You can make the ranch dip without the dill, but you will not get the full ranch flavor. It should still be tasty though.

Recipe
Easy Vegan Ranch Dip
Ingredients
- 1 cup vegan mayo, homemade or store-bought
- 1-3 Tablespoons non-dairy milk
- 3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ⅓ teaspoon dried dill
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients, except the milk, to a small mixing bowl.
- Whisk the ingredients together until everything is fully combined.
- If your dip is too thick, whisk in 1 Tablespoon of milk at a time until you reach your desired dip consistency. The dip should be thick enough to scoop onto a celery stick or chip without dripping off.
- Chill the ranch dip in the fridge for 1-2 hours. The dip may thicken up again after chilling. Add more milk if needed.
- Mix before serving.
Enjoy!
Notes
- Turn this dip into vegan ranch dressing by adding enough non-dairy milk to thin it out. The dressing should be thin enough to easily pour off of a spoon.
- If the ranch seems like it needs more flavor, but has enough salt and lemon juice, add about ⅛-1/4 teaspoon agave nectar or maple syrup. A small amount of sweetener will bring the flavors together.
