Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 teaspoons dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¾ teaspoon dried minced onion
- ¾ teaspoon dried chives
- ½–¾ teaspoon granulated garlic (adjust to taste)
- ½ teaspoon dried dill
- 3–4 pinches black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: In a medium bowl, add 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt and all the dried seasonings including dried parsley, salt, dried minced onion, dried chives, granulated garlic, dried dill, and black pepper.
- Mix thoroughly: Stir the mixture until it is smooth and all the seasonings are well blended into the yogurt, creating a uniform ranch dressing base.
- Chill: Transfer the ranch mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This resting time allows the flavors to meld and intensify, resulting in a more flavorful dressing.
- Serve: Use the Greek Yogurt Ranch as a dip for fresh vegetables, a dressing for salads, or a spread for wraps and sandwiches. Enjoy chilled for best taste and texture.
Notes
- Adjust the granulated garlic quantity according to your taste preference.
- For a thinner dressing, you can stir in a little milk or water before serving.
- Store the ranch dressing in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- Use fresh herbs if available; reduce the quantity by about half since fresh herbs are more potent.
