To turn ranch seasoning into dressing:
Combine 1 tablespoon of ranch seasoning with any of the following variations:
- ⅓ cup yogurt (Greek or regular) and ¼ cup milk
- ½ cup mayonnaise, ¼ cup sour cream and 1-2 tablespoons of milk or buttermilk
- ¼ cup mayonnaise, ¼ cup sour cream, 1 teaspoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1-2 tablespoons buttermilk
Notes
- You can use the homemade ranch recipe in place of store-bought packets in any recipe as well. A packet contains 2-3 Tablespoons of seasoning.
- Want to make a homemade ranch dip? Use one of the options with sour cream and start with half the amount of the base ingredients. Add a bit more milk if it’s too thick.
- Like spicy ranch? Add a finely chopped jalapeno to the ranch dressing or mix in a bit of sriracha or hot sauce.
