Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Mayonnaise (avocado/olive oil based)
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream
  • 2 tbsp Buttermilk (use more if needed for desired consistency)
  • 1/8 cup Fresh Italian Parsley (finely chopped)
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Dill (finely chopped)
  • 1 tsp Fresh Oregano (finely chopped)
  • 1/8 tsp Cayenne Pepper (optional)
  • Paprika (to taste)
  • Worcestershire Sauce (just a few drops)
  • Salt and Pepper (to taste)
  • 2 Cloves of Garlic (minced)

Method
 

  1. Mince the garlic, chop all the herbs.
  2. Grab your mason jar or a bowl. Add the mayonnaise, sour cream and toss the herbs and garlic in there. Stir well.
  3. Now, add the Worcestershire sauce, spices, salt and pepper. Stir together.
  4. Depending on how thick or thin you like ranch dressing, start with 2 tbsp. If you like it thinner, add a little more.
  5. Pour the dressing into a jar. Put the lid on and store in the fridge for 2-4 hours.

Notes

  1. If you like your ranch a little spicy, just add more cayenne pepper. 
  2. Love the taste of garlic, add more cloves. You’re my kind of cook!
  3. You can omit the buttermilk and just use milk, but it won’t be as yummy!
  4. If you only have dried herbs, that is totally fine. It will still taste good. Maybe go a little longer in the fridge. I’d make it the day before you use it and let all those flavors meld together.
