Here is our favorite ranch dressing recipe that we make weekly in our house. The bottles in the grocery store are packed full of ingredients you can’t pronounce and if you can’t pronounce it then chances are it’s probably not something you want to be eating.
The good news is, making your own is super easy! It’s also super delicious, everyone in our house puts the stamp of approval on this one!
And it’s ready to serve the minute you make it.
I make it so often, I don’t measure the spices anymore but the following should be a good idea of ratios. Feel free to eyeball it as you get a hang of it!
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
- 1/4 cup Mayo
- 1 tsp. Parsley Flakes
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- dash of Ground Pepper
- 1 Clove Garlic (Minced)
- optional: 1/2 tsp Minced Onion
- optional: splash of Milk
Directions:
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl or jar and stir well.
- Keep it thick for dipping or thin it out with a splash of milk to pour over salad!
Note: If you don’t have fresh garlic on hand, you can use a sprinkle of garlic powder instead.
Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Wow! I had no idea ranch dressing is so easy to make! Thanks for sharing!
Katie @ Cup of Tea Blog says
Yum! This looks so yummy! Does it have to be a particular type of yogurt? I always have plain greek yogurt on hand. I assume that will work, but maybe make it a bit thicker?
The Realistic Mama says
Plain yogurt for sure. 😉 But I’ve never tried Greek, if it’s thicker just add a little bit of milk. After you try it we would love to hear how it goes!
Laura says
Sounds super easy and yummy! Thanks for sharing!
Amy says

How long does this last before it spoils?
Alida says
It never last that long in our house so I can’t say for sure! But if you don’t add milk and keep it to only yogurt and mayo it should last you quite a while! Probably close to the expiration of the yogurt, I would think.
Shelby says
What kind of yogurt do you use for this recipe?
Alida says
We use organic PLAIN full fat yogurt.
Tammy says
Would it work with all yogurt instead of yogurt + mayo?
Alida says
Unfortunately, I don’t think so. I wish there was a good alternative for the mayo in the recipe but we’ve yet to try a recipe without mayo that everyone here approves on.
