Homemade Ranch Dressing In Minutes-- YUM!

 
When we went to grandpa's house the other day, the kids and I invaded his garden and green house. Unfortunately, there wasn't too much ripe for the picking that day, but we did pick some fresh herbs and lettuce. Lettuce straight from the garden calls for salad dressing that is not straight from a bottle. My boys and my husband love Ranch dressing, so I figured I would make some. It literally only takes a few minutes to make it and less than that if you have the seasoning premixed like I do. Click here for my simple Ranch Seasoning Mix Recipe. Trust me, it is totally worth every minute! You can find the recipe for the Ranch Seasoning Mix here.

Homemade Ranch Dressing

Ingredients

Directions

Whisk together mayonnaise, milk, and homemade ranch dressing seasoning mix.  Season with salt, to taste. Use immediately or refrigerate for up to 3 days. This makes enough for 4 salads.
*If you prefer a thicker dressing, you can add a little more mayo and a bit less milk. If you want a thinner dressing, add more milk.

Homemade Ranch Dressing Seasoning Mix

 
 
My husband and my kids love Ranch salad dressing on just about everything-- chicken, salad, steak, pizza... The list goes on! I decided to try to make some Ranch Seasoning to try out. It took me no more than two minutes to make and it tastes great. I plan to make some homemade ranch dressing and experiment with it a bit. This mix can also be used to make a delicious fresh ranch dip for vegetables or potato chips by adding it to sour cream. 

 

Homemade Ranch Dressing Seasoning Mix

Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons dried parsley
  • 2 teaspoons dried dill
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

  • Add each of the dried spices to a bowl and gently stir.
  • Store in a small air tight container or a Ziploc bag in a dry dark place.
*This makes about 8 tablespoons of seasoning. You can cut the recipe in half or double it to make as little or as much as you like.
