What’s In This Dairy Free Sour Cream and Onion Dip?

Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!

Silken Tofu – or if you don’t like tofu you can use a dairy free sour cream.
Nutritional Yeast: not to be confused with bread baking yeast, nutritional yeast has a cheesy nutty umami flavor which is great in all kinds of dishes – I even sprinkle it on fresh popped pop corn and WOW! Also great in soups and sauces of all kinds.
Extra virgin olive oil
Fresh lemon juice
Red Wine Vinegar: I used red wine vinegar to give this dip a really nice bright flavor – for that, this red wine vinegar is my go-to!
Garlic Powder: Also a major pantry staple ingredient that get used in our house daily! I love this garlic powder and add it to a lot of recipes that I would use fresh garlic in too.
Yellow Onions – I blend a bit of yellow onion into the dip to give it a light subtle onion flavor
Green Onions – to fold into the dip, and also for extra garnish on top!

How Do I Make Sour Cream and Onion Dip Vegan?

Add all ingredients except the green onions to a blender or food processor, and mix on low speed until the tofu becomes creamy and thick. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt if needed.
Transfer the dip to a bowl. Fold in half of the green onions into the dip, and sprinkle the other half on top.
Dip chips, veggies, or crackers… and enjoy!
