healthy homemade ranch dip

Skip the store-bought ranch (that’s loaded with preservatives and unnecessary ingredients) and make this easy Greek Yogurt Ranch Dip instead that tastes just like regular ranch! Made with creamy Greek yogurt, sour cream, fresh herbs, and a few seasonings. This healthier ranch dip is packed with protein, my kids even love it (and a great way to get them to eat veggies).

One of my favorite things about this Greek Yogurt Ranch Dip recipe is how versatile it is. Serve it as a healthy appetizer, add it to lunchboxes, spread it on sandwiches, burgers and wraps. Thin it with milk to make a homemade ranch dressing for salads, a dipping sauce for chicken wings, fries or pizza dunking. Quick, easy, and loaded with classic ranch flavor.

If you love all things ranch flavored, try these Ranch Roasted Potatoes, Bacon Cheddar Ranch Dip, Bacon Ranch Pinwheels and Chicken Ranch Pasta Salad.

key ingredients

• Sour cream: This makes the dip extremely creamy and adds tang.  
• Plain Greek yogurt: Instead of mayo, we use this star ingredient that makes this dip creamy, tangy, and packed with protein. I recommend using whole milk full-fat Greek yogurt for the richest flavor and texture.
• Dried dill: Adds the best flavor and makes this dip have that classic ranch taste. Fresh dill could also be used.
• Lemon juice: Brightens the dip and balances the creamy Greek yogurt with a hint of freshness.
• Seasonings: Salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder.
• Whole or low-fat Milk or buttermilk: Used to thin the dip, add more to make a ranch salad dressing.
• Dippers: Some favs are carrots, celery, cherry tomatoes, broccoli and cucumbers.

leftovers & storage

The great news is this Greek yogurt dip will last about one week when in an airtight container in the refrigerator. You could also cover the dish with plastic wrap or aluminum foil.

You may need to give the dip a stir if any excess moisture appears at the top or pat it away with a paper towel, and it will taste just as delicious as I did the first day you made it. Having dip handy in the fridge at all times is always a good idea!

how to freeze greek yogurt ranch dip

This dip will last in the freezer for up to 3 months when covered completely with plastic wrap, aluminum foil and then plastic wrap again. I would also store this dip in a disposable pan. When ready to eat, defrost completely.
