Answer 1

Rhonda's No-Oil Salad Dressing (raw)
Source: Recipes for Life from God's Garden

1 cup raw almonds
1 cup distilled water

Pour water over almonds, cover and leave on counter to soak for 24 hours. At the end of 24 hours, drain almonds and discard water.

Place almonds in blender with 1 cup distilled water and blend about 2 minutes until creamy. Stop the blender and add the following ingredients:

2 tsp. nutritional yeast flakes
1 tsp. kelp
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. Bragg's Liquid Aminos
1 tsp. herb seasoning (optional)
1 Tbsp. minced parsley
2 tsp. garlic powder
2 Tbsp. dried onion flakes
1 tsp. dill weed
pinch of cayenne pepper
1 1/2 Tbsp. chopped dates

Blend to mix then add the following thickener:

In a blender combine 2 cups room temperature distilled water or vegetable broth with 2 Tbsp. Arrow root powder. Blend until smooth. Pour into a sauce pan, heat until clear and beginning to thicken. Add this mixture to the blender with the other ingredients and blend well. Pour into glass jar and allow to cool. The mixture will thicken as it cools. Store in refrigerator. This dressing can be used in any recipe which calls for salad dressing.

Ranch Dressing by Jennifer Cornbleet
from her Uncook Book "Raw Made Easy"
Yield 1 cup, 1/4 is a serving

1cup *soaked Raw Cashews, then drained
3/4 cup Water
2 TBS. Fresh Lemon Juice
1/2 tps. Garlic Powder
1/2 tps. Onion Powder
1/2 tps. Sea Salt
1 TBS. Minced Fresh Basil or 1tps. Dried Basil
1TBS. Minced Fresh Dill or 1 tps. Dried Dill

Place the Cashews, Water, Lemon juice, Garlic powder, Onion powder & Salt in a blender and process until smooth & creamy. Add basil & Dill pulse briefly just to mix.
Store in a sealed container in fridge. Will keep for 5 days.
We use this instead of Cesar dressing too. Add Nutritional Yeast for Cheesy Flavor

*Soaking Cashews
1 Cups Raw Cashews in enough clean water to cover..soak 2 hours then drain. A little longer will not hurt.
Variation:
For a Thousand Island Dressing add 1/2 a chopped Red Bell Pepper(about 1/2 cup) to the blender

Answer 3

I have a raw "caesar" dressing that I use a LOT when i'm raw. I'm not at home so I can't give it to you now. If you google "raw caesar dressing" you'll probably find a couple recipes. If I go out to eat and i'm 100% raw, i'll get a (dry) salad with a lemon wedge to squeeze over it, a fruit and/or veggie plate. When I go out to mexican restaurants I get guacamole and if they have veggies, i dip the veggies in the guac.

Answer 4

Serious answers, friend.

Vinegar, oil, some mustard to emulsify. Tasty. Don't go out to eat unless it's a salad bar or you're in a major city that has raw restaurants. It'll be tough.

Answer 5

Get some italian dressing from the store and add some olive oil to it. As far as going out to eat you really are limited as far as a raw vegan diet is concerned.
