Ingredients

Homemade Ranch Seasoning

  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon dried dill
  • 1 tablespoon dried chives
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 cup dried buttermilk powder optional dairy addition for a creamy version

Homemade Ranch Dressing

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise *I prefer avocado oil mayo for the healthiest option
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons dried ranch seasoning mix 1 tablespoon if using the dairy-free version
  • 1 tablespoon water Add water by tablespoons until you achieve desired consistency

Instructions

Homemade Ranch Seasoning Instructions

  • Whisk together all ingredients in a bowl or jar

Notes

  • How much of this seasoning mix would replace a packet of store-bought ranch seasoning mix? Most spice packets are 1 oz portions which equal 2 tablespoons. Portion out 2 tablespoons of mix to replace a packet in your recipes!
  • How long does the seasoning blend last? Best way to store it? The mix will last a few months if stored dried and in an airtight container.
    How long would the dip/dressing last? Best way to store it? Store your dressing or dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
  • Any there any other variations of ranch seasoning? Try out some new takes on ranch seasoning by adding some chili powder or cumin for a Tex-Mex taste, or even some lemon pepper for a more citrusy flavor.
  • Nutrition Facts: Nutrition facts are for seasoning blend only (with buttermilk powder).
