Ranch Dressing

Once you try homemade ranch, the bottle’s done for. This version comes together in one bowl with simple pantry staples—and it’s creamy, tangy, and loaded with herb flavor. Perfect as a dip, salad dressing, or drizzle for just about everything.

Why use a bottle full of preservatives when this fresh, creamy ranch comes together in minutes with one bowl and zero mystery ingredients?

How It Comes Together
This dressing couldn’t be easier: just combine everything in a single bowl and whisk until smooth. Pour it into a jar, chill, and you’re done. Use more milk for a pourable dressing or keep it thicker for dipping veggies. Bonus tip—if you’ve got freeze-dried herbs, use them! They’re even better than standard dried.

Flavorful, creamy, and cleaner than anything from a bottle—this ranch is your new go-to. One bowl, no fuss, and 100% better than store-bought.
