Vegan Green Goddess Dressing

A low-calorie, creamy Vegan Green Goddess Dressing that is full of flavor and fresh spring herbs. Use it on bowls and salads, drizzle it on grilled veggies or use as a healthy veggie dip. You’ll find a million uses! 

There are a lot of Vegan Green Goddess Dressings out there and….. here is why this one is different. It is made with silken tofu instead of nuts, keeping it low in fat and calories. You can make this version with little-to-no oil if that is your preference. I love this with the Spring Goddess Bowl or on crunchy farmers market veggies as a dip. It may not be for everyone…but for for those watching fat or cholesterol intake, this is a godsend, because it really mimics creamy. I know you’ll love it.

Give this Green Goddess Dressing a try and let me know what you think!

FYI, I made this for my meat loving husband, and he had no idea it was vegan, let alone made with tofu.  Just sayin’. 😉

Here is a another creamy dressing you might like – Vegan Ranch Dressing!
