Roasted Red Pepper Salad Dressing (Vegan & GF)

Confession: I used to hate making my own salad dressing. It always seemed too complicated, and I simply preferred store bought. I preferred basically everything store bought back then, though. Once you start making things at home with quality ingredients your taste buds start to pick up on what I like to call that gross-artificial-kinda-like-plastic-store-bought-taste. Maybe all those preservatives.

Now, I love making my own salad dressing because I prefer the better quality taste. I also love experimenting with different flavors (like garlic hemp oil salad dressing) and of course this roasted red pepper salad dressing!

Roasted red peppers are a staple that I always have on hand to make hummus with, so when I saw a jar in my pantry in the midst of brainstorming a new salad dressing recipe, things just CLICKED. I thought it would taste amazing and I was so right (that feels good to say! ha!)

You certainly could roast your own red peppers to make this, as well! Here is a how-to.

The best part (besides the flavor) is that you just throw all of the ingredients into the blender and it’s done. Just toss it with a salad, like Orzo Pasta Salad, and you’re ready to enjoy or serve to your family friends.

You can also using this roasted red pepper dressing recipe as a delicious & unique marinade, to dip bread in, or even to drizzle onto a sandwich.
