Are you looking to elevate your meals with some delicious and creamy dressings and dips, but need to avoid dairy? Here's a list of dressings that are not only easy to make but also packed with flavor. Whether you're lactose intolerant or simply trying something new, these recipes are sur to become staples in your kitchen.
Sugar Free Honey Mustard
If you're cutting down on sugar, this sugar free honey mustard is sweetened with dates! It has a great balance of sweet and tangy.
My favorite way to use this dip is with gluten free chicken tenders. It is so delicious that you may want to make a double batch!
Make this Whole30 Mayo as the base, it's a very simple and clean mayonnaise and can also be used as a base for a few of these dips!
Cilantro Lime Dressing
Cilantro...lime....garlic...need I say more? Cilantro Lime Dressing is probably my all time favorite dip! It's absolutely delicious and is versatile.
This one is great with the above mentioned chicken tenders too, and with chuletas de puerco. Chuletas are crispy, pan fried pork strips. So delicious!!!
This dressing also goes really well with Mexican foods such as fajitas and tacos, even on Mexican cauli-rice. If you want a really delicious taco without all the soy and MSG from the spice packets, use this Whole30 taco seasoning!
Dairy Free Ranch
Since ranch dressing is such a staple in many American households, you definitely need a dairy free version!
Used to having your ranch on pizza? Top this Meatzaa with the Dairy Free Ranch Dressing! Used to dipping your chicken nuggets with ranch? Like mixing ranch with your mashed potatoes? Then be sure to make these Whole30 mashed potatoes and enjoy with the ranch!
Mango Dressing
This mango dressing is unique, it's not as popular as the dressings above. It's delicious and fresh, and goes with all the summer things!
Try it with tacos, especially fish tacos. It's also good in place of mayo in a chicken salad! Serve it on a lettuce wrap for a light and refreshing summer meal!
Fire Roasted Salsa Verde
This salsa verde tastes incredibly fresh and can be used as you would a red salsa.
You can use it to make this egg free breakfast, Pork Verde Skillet! Or, stir it into scrambled eggs for a lot of flavor. I like to sauté potatoes with it as well, and you can even slather it on veggies before roasting them!

I am not Whole 30, but I hate how so many dips you get from the store have such weird ingredients. I like making my own so I know they have real food ingredients in them. Thanks for the recipes!

Ugh yes! I hear you! It's so difficult to find something clean, and you'd think salad dressings would be on the healthy end but they're not. I hope you enjoy these!

These dips look so tasty! I was looking for some easy, healthy dips to complement some of meals, so I'm definitely going to try some of these. I've never thought of trying honey mustard without honey, but I love dates so that's going to be the first one I attempt!
