47 Vegan Salad Dressing Recipes

 

I'm so excited to share this post with you!  There was a time not so long ago when I was less than enthused about salads.  If only I'd had this list!  

We're talking life-changing.  

These 47 vegan salad dressings are making me crave salad right this minute!  No longer will your tastebuds be skeptical when your mind tells them you should really eat a nutritious bowl of raw vegetables - because you will have this awesomely delicious list of options to make those tastebuds sing with joy!

There's quite a variety of salad dressings here - all vegan:  Vinaigrettes, tahini, avocado, fruity, even classics like Thousand Island and Ranch...

To help you find the dressing you're currently in the mood for, I have categorized the recipes; note that many could really be in more than one category.  

A special thanks to all the wonderful food bloggers who shared their recipes for this post.  

Now dig in!
