I was so excited today when I put out a veggie platter with ranch dip out and my kids totally dug in! They ate all the veggies. I think a huge part of that success was the yummy homemade ranch dip.
I used a recipe I found at The Antihousewife but took out the buttermilk and changed the spices a little. Here's my recipe:
- 1/2 cup dried parsley
- 3 tablespoons garlic powder
- 3 tablespoons onion power
- 1 tablespoons dried dill
- 1 tablespoon sea salt
- 1/2 tablespoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Mayonnaise
First we are going to make a ranch mix that you can keep in the cupboard to make mixing up a bowl of ranch fast and easy.
Place all of the spices into a food processor. Pulse until you have nice small pieces but not powder. Now you have your ranch mix!
To make dip or dressing: mix 1 - 1 1/2 cups mayonnaise with 1 tablespoon spice mix.

ReplyDeleteOMG, ok - Doing this!! I'm falling in love with your blog now :) *my heart is a flutter*
ReplyDeletelol. Thank you for the kind comment jillypumpkin!
ReplyDeleteI have made ranch dressing as above, but I used 1/2 mayonaise and 1/2 silken tofu. For those who use soy, the tofu stretches the mayo. A splash of lemon juice is good.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment Warthog, although I personally don't recommend soy. Here's a good article on the subject: http://www.foodrenegade.com/dangers-of-soy/
ReplyDeleteyou could use 1/2 mayo and 1/2 cauliflower mash to cut back on the mayo a bit:)
ReplyDeleteGood idea Janel. That would be good for getting in more veggies! I like mayo though :)
