sauce

In this collection, you will find all of my best vegan sauce and dressing recipes.

There are plenty of options from my favourite pickled jalapeño ranch, a blueberry BBQ sauce, and the sunflower romesco that I make constantly. Or, try this chile lime tahini sauce, liquid gold dressing, and this vegan sheet pan gravy.

If you are looking for even more vegan sauce recipes, The First Mess Cookbook has plenty of inspiration.
