Description
This creamy, tangy ranch dressing is made healthier with Greek yogurt and light mayo! Perfect as a dip, salad dressing, or veggie accompaniment, this homemade ranch is a quick and easy way to enjoy all the flavor without the added calories.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup light mayonnaise (or use all Greek yogurt for a lighter option)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried dill (or fresh if available)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2–3 tablespoons water (to thin, as needed)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise (if using), lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, dill, salt, and pepper.
- Add water, a tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve with your favorite veggies, salads, or as a dip!
Notes
- You can substitute all Greek yogurt instead of using mayonnaise for an even lighter version.
- Add more or less water to achieve your preferred consistency—less water for a thicker dip, more water for a pourable dressing.
- For a zesty kick, consider adding a small amount of hot sauce or cayenne pepper.
- Make this ahead of time for a more flavorful dressing!
