This healthy homemade ranch dressing is perfect for dipping, topping, and finishing dishes! Using a combo of plain Greek yogurt & mayo as the base ensures it's tangy and creamy while lemon juice and a few dried herbs add tons of classic ranch flavor! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! 😊

Notes

Expert Tips
  • Use full fat Greek yogurt for the creamiest consistency.
  • If you prefer not to use mayo, you can replace it with another tablespoon of Greek yogurt. 
  • Start with adding 2 tablespoon of water and add the rest to thin it out to your desired consistency. 
Storage 
  • Refrigerator - store your leftovers in an airtight container like a mason jar in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
