I’m eatting a wonderful salad RIGHT now! With your “Crack” recipe!!! WOW! I love it! I’m definitely going to turn my friends on to this. I made it just like your recipe except instead of raisins I used crasins. LOVE it 😍 Hello summer salads! So good!
@Fv234pop, yes you’re right I just looked at the label. I’ve done it with dried cherries too. Thanks for the comment, I’m an avid label reader but I just didn’t think about to look at the sugar added in the cranberries.👍
I just made the balsamic dressing and WOWWEE that was so good! I am not a balsamic lover and am still developing my taste for vinegar. This is really so good and satisfying and I am so happy you shared this!!! THANK YOU!
I just made it today and it is DELICIOUS! I also used as a dip for raw broccoli. I halved the recipe because it’s just me trying to eat clean and it still made a lot. But mine got a bit thick… is yours thickish too?
@The Whole Food Plant Based Cooking Show I go with the studies Dr. Jason Fung points to. He recommends unprocessed (to the extent possible) foods. Including oils.
I just made the crack dressing and now I have to go back to the store and get more salad stuff. OMG this dressing is to die for. My blender isn’t high powered but it did good enough to where I was licking the spoon. I can’t even tell you the last time I ate a salad, maybe never but every day now!
You can generally use other nuts like raw almonds, unsalted sun flower seeds, pumpkin seeds, hemp hearts. Nuts in general are expensive. You can also replace the nuts with a small amount of rolled oats as a thickener which is what we do when we don’t have nuts in the pantry.
Nice will try but am going to substitute garbanzos for the cashews….less fat and might be useful for people with allergens. Medajool dates as well are a good raisin stand in.
Did anyone have an issue with the second dressing being overpowered by the white wine vinegar? I followed the recipe on the website to the letter and I had to add allulose until it tasted more like a honey mustard. Next time I’m going to add about half the vinegar.
Not being critical, it could be my cheap blender. I also added more plant milk to thin it to a dressing consistency.
Hello Glen, this was one of our earlier recipes so you are probably right. My husband LOVES really strong vinegar dressings. We have a newer honey mustard recipe that I like better.
i made the crack dressing,it was good,took it to work and my coworkers loved it.i did have to thin it down with more almond milk because it came out really thick,too thick for me.it made 32 0z or more,makes alot,next time will half the recipe

I just made it myself! Wow…. It’s going to be my weekly go-to dressing.
So what?! You want a medal or a national holiday named after you?!
@Jammin G You are rude!
@Fv234pop i bought a bag of dates and asked my grand kids if they wanted to go on a date with me. They cracked up laughing
Fantastic Dressing! I’m so excited to have a couple great dressing finally!
What can I use instead of oats and no A1 protien
Is plastic good to store vinegar based salad dressing!
Glass is always better but I like the spout on the plastic bottles and that you can squeeze them.
What are the measurements for the second salad dressing?
Here is the recipe =)
@The Whole Food Plant Based Cooking Show thank you so much. I’m going to try these today!!

Not oil/fat free. Cashews are high in fat.
No refined oil. Nuts are a whole food fat. We never say that our food is fat free.
Thank you for the great recipes! I have a hard time finding good recipes without oil. Love your channel 💚
lots of fat with cashews and almond milk. Sure it is delicious, but…
Hi can I use sesame seeds instead of nuts? Allergic to all nuts, and don’t like tofu.
Hello Miss Jill!
Would your dressings work the same if I use lemon instead of lemon? Thanks!
Instead of vinegar? I’m guessing that is what you meant. It doesn’t really work the same
Question I see 10 servings but how much is a serving? Need to get weight watchers point value.
We love your crack recipe!
My husband especially loves the honey mustard dressing! Thank you 🙏
what kind of blender do you have?
talk you much…..
Used arangos instead, added lemon juice and liquid smoke, awesomeness!
Why do you avoid healthy oils like extra virgin olive oil (cold pressed)?
@The Whole Food Plant Based Cooking Show I go with the studies Dr. Jason Fung points to. He recommends unprocessed (to the extent possible) foods. Including oils.
Do you need to soak the cashews first?
No
Excited to try these!!!
You don’t sY how much of everything, please.

Could you please give the quantities of the ingredients used? Thank you.
Thank you!😊
Cool, thanks

done
I noticed on the recipe that this dressing is 175 cals per serving. What it the serving size . Thank u.
Have to give these a try, thanks for sharing 👍❤️😊
Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful videos, please for healthy body try not use plastic bottles for your delicious recipes.
It might be an oil free dressing however with all those cashews its a high fat dressing.
The MEASURE MENTS?
Too bad cashews are used in so much of the recipes because they are expensive

@The Whole Food Plant Based Cooking Show cool, thanks for the advice. I will try that 💪😎👋
Can I use dates instead of raisins
Yes 👍
Why are we so reluctant to use oil…olive, pumpkin or maybe walnut oil…all used in a mediterranean diet…very healthy?
We avoided refined oils as they are calorie dense and nutrient poor. Better to eat the olives, walnuts, or pumpkins seeds. You can learn more here
Every vegan oil free dressing i look up is sweet 🤢 . Why????
You can leave the raisins out . This is just our preference.
Nice will try but am going to substitute garbanzos for the cashews….less fat and might be useful for people with allergens. Medajool dates as well are a good raisin stand in.
Its the perfect tools that make this kind of eating easy and sustainable.
For the nuts that you’re using, do you soak them first?
I don’t
didn’t see you add the braggs in the crack dressing. do we not need it? thanks!!
Just a mistake in filming. It is better with it 👍
@The Whole Food Plant Based Cooking Show thank you!
Love your video. What are the quantities of the ingredients?
Here is the recipe
Cashews are not a recommended nut to consume…they are very toxic.
what can i use to replace cashews??
Almonds or sunflower seeds
Are the cashews supposed be soaked overnight?? Just want to know before I start to make this…….. Thanks!
You can make it with or without soaking
@The Whole Food Plant Based Cooking Show Thank you Jill!
Delicious. I added cayenne and reduced the raisins to the Honey Mustard. I’ve made both of these now and I love them!
Will these dressings freeze successfully?
I haven’t tried that but I think they would do really well
I simply love your down to earth simplicity! I can do this!! Thank you for all your work to make this channel! 🙏💜
Thanks for including a link to the recipe. These look good.
Sounds delicious 😋 What brand of vinegar and raisins did you use ?
Hi Natalie,
I like this vinegar:
And I usually buy 365 brand of raisins or Trader Joe’s organic Thompson because they don’t coat them in oil 👍
