Baked Fries with Vegan Cilantro Ranch
A quick and easy vegan snack – these Baked Fries with Vegan Cilantro Ranch combine seasoned fries with a creamy & savory dip.
Today I want to talk about my love for two things.
Fries,
and…
Ranch.
I don’t know about you, but when these two things come together it is my version of heaven on earth.
There is something about the salty, crunchy fries mixed with the creamy, tangy ranch that just gives your tastebuds all the feels.
Making vegan ranch is a breeze now that vegan mayo is so widely available.
From Hampton Creek to Trader Joe’s, vegan mayo is everywhere.
I mean, freaking Walmart sells it now!
And if you don’t want to spend a couple minutes making your own ranch from scratch, you can also buy it.
Hampton Creek makes Just Ranch (and a bunch of other vegan dressings) that is so so so good.
Again, you can get it at freaking Walmart – that’s how available this stuff is!
As for the fries.
I have shown you a couple version of baked fries. From my Potato Wedges with Pesto Hummus to my Potato Wedges with Avocado Dip.
It is quite clear, I am all about baking my fries.
I don’t really see the need to fry them when you can get them good and crispy in the oven.
All it takes is a high temp, a tiny bit of oil and some good spices.
Whether you make these for game day or a simple afternoon snack, you are sure to finish the whole plate!
