Vegan Italian Salad Dressing
This easy recipe for vegan Italian salad dressing is fresh, tangy, and delicious. With red wine vinegar, garlic, and a bit of basil, it has all the classic Italian flavors.
Equipment
- Mason Jar or Container with tight-fitting lid
Ingredients
- ⅔ cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- ½ tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Grab a mason jar, a container with a tight-fitting lid, or a small mixing bowl. Whichever you are using to make this dressing in, make sure it is at least 1.5 cups in its capacity.
- Begin by adding the liquid ingredients to the mason jar. Pour in the olive oil, red wine vinegar, and fresh lemon juice.
- To the liquids, add the dijon mustard. Next, add the nutritional yeast. This dressing calls for 1 tablespoon for a mild cheese taste.
- Add the garlic powder & dried basil to the other ingredients.
- Next add the salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
- Once all the ingredients are in the mason jar. Screw the lid on tightly.
- With the lid on tight, shake the mason jar vigorously for 15 seconds. The dressing should come together.If using a bowl, grab a whisk to combine.
- Add it to your favorite salad - including my Vegan Italian Chopped Salad that I shared a link to above.
- Place leftovers in the refrigerator to keep fresh. It will be good for 7-10 days.
