Make this Healthy Ranch Dressing to use on your favorite salad or as a dip for veggies.

You won’t go back to store-bought ranch dressing once you see how easy it is to make this healthy version! It’s perfect for salads or as a dip for veggies.

It’s Jenna from A Savory Feast, and I’m excited to share another recipe with you today! Lately I’ve been paying closer attention to what is in the products I buy at the grocery store and looking for alternatives.


Store-bought ranch dressing typically contains a lot of preservatives, sugar, and other not-so-great ingredients. So I decided to experiment with making my own, and it was surprisingly easy!

This ranch dressing is made with greek yogurt, milk and a bunch of yummy spices to give it the perfect flavor. It’s creamy and delicious, but you don’t have to feel guilty about eating it! Greek yogurt is good for you because it’s high in protein and calcium.

This dressing goes great with your favorite salad! I made delicious salad for dinner using romaine lettuce, tomatoes, hard boiled eggs, and grilled chicken. We used this dressing instead of store-bought, and it was so good!

Make this dressing as a dip for veggies, too! You can adjust the amount of milk you use in order to make the dressing thicker for a dip or thinner for a salad dressing. Next time you have guests over, make a thick version of this dressing and serve it with some carrot sticks, broccoli, cherry tomatoes and more.
