Comments: This raw ranch dressing is yummy on salads. Our original recipe used 1 oz of agave nectar to sweeten this dressing. One day, we tried adding a medjool date instead of the agave, and we loved it. The date added just a hint of sweetness, and the date fiber made the dressing thicker. This dressing is also fantastic on steamed greens or other steamed vegetables.
