Ingredients

• 1 block (about 12 ounces) Silken tofu
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried dill
• 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon Dried chives
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 tablespoons Unsweetened non-dairy milk

Directions

Step 1

Drain the silken tofu and gently pat it dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

Step 2

In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the silken tofu, olive oil, lemon juice, and apple cider vinegar. Blend until smooth and creamy.

Step 3

Add the garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, dried parsley, dried chives, salt, and black pepper to the blender. Blend again to incorporate the seasonings.

Step 4

Gradually add the unsweetened non-dairy milk, one tablespoon at a time, blending after each addition until the dressing reaches your desired consistency.

Step 5

Taste the dressing and adjust seasonings if needed. Add more lemon juice for tanginess, salt for flavor, or non-dairy milk for a thinner texture.

Step 6

Transfer the dressing to a clean jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 7

Serve chilled as a salad dressing, dip, or sauce. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
