Homemade Ranch Dressing Recipe
Save money and eat healthier by making your own Ranch Dressing Spice Mix! Ranch is a favorite in our house. I feel good serving this Ranch Dressing to my kids because not only is it delicious, it is real food – no preservatives or corn syrup here!
Whenever you need some salad dressing or dip, just combine Ranch Dressing Spice Mix with sour cream, mayonnaise and buttermilk. Altering the proportions will yield either dressing or dip – your choice!
If you are out of sour cream or buttermilk, try substituting. Greek yogurt can be used in place of sour cream. Buttermilk can be replaced with thinned yogurt, or by adding a few tablespoons of lemon juice or vinegar to a cup of milk. You can use store bought mayonnaise or make your own.
