Ranch Dressing With Greek Yogurt
You can whip up a creamy and flavorful ranch dressing using Greek yogurt, spices, herbs, and a blender in less than 5 minutes, perfect for salads, veggie dips, or chicken marinades!
Equipment
- 1 immersion blender or regular blender/food processor
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain greek yogurt
- 1/3 cup buttermilk (if you don't have buttermilk add 1 tsp of white vinegar or lemon juice to 1/3 cup regular milk or dairy-free milk and let it sit for 10 minutes)
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 3 tsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 3/4 tsp table salt
- 1 tbsp chives about 1 inch if you're cutting the chives from a bunch
- 1 tbsp parsley
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp onion powder
- fresh cracked black pepper
Instructions
- If you need to make the buttermilk, add 1 tsp of white vinegar or lemon juice to 1/3 cup regular milk or dairy-free milk, stir, and let it sit for 10 minutes
- Place all of the ingredients into a deep immersion blender cup or a deep bowl. Using an immersion blender, blend until the chives and parsley are fully chopped and well integrated. You should be left with a creamy dressing. If you need to use a blender, follow these instructions, just make sure you don't over blend. I wouldnt go past 10 seconds.
- Taste and see if you would like more acidity (lemon juice), or more salt/spices.
- Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days, and give it a good stir before using. Enjoy!
