Tessemae’s Salad Dressings are Dripping with Dairy-Free Ranch Flavors

Are you looking for dairy-free ranch dressing? Will seven different varieties of dairy-free ranch dressing do? That’s right, Tessemae’s Dressings include seven different flavors of ranch alone. But let’s be clear: this is not your mama’s Ranch dressing.

Tessemae’s Salad Dressings are Dripping with Dairy-Free Ranch Flavors

I sampled just a taste of Tessemae’s original Ranch Dressing on its own, and then both Tony and I enjoyed it on some monster salads. Here was our honest reaction …

• Me: “It tastes like pickles!”
• Tony: “Good, I like pickles!” ~ Grabs his big salad and digs in.
• Me: “Well, what do you think? Does it taste like pickles?”
• Tony: “I don’t know, it’s really good.” ~ confirmation that it tastes like pickles; the man loves pickles!

Not a fan of pickles? Don’t worry, they seem to have something for everyone. And they have changed their formula a bit since Tessemae’s first launched their original ranch dressing. Their original recipe used a bit of coconut cream, which actually made the dressing too thick once refrigerated. Now they have a more classic whole food blend with several very unique variations. They also have newer shelf-stable “pantry” varieties for stocking up.

Tessemae’s Salad Dressings are all dairy-free and paleo-friendly, and they come in several varieties. I’ve focused on their ranch dressings in this post, but have included a quick list of their other salad dressing varieties.

Was really enjoying this until I found out that high colsic sunflower oil is inflammatory. Oh well back to strictly Primal kitchen.
