Why I Choose Homemade Ranch Instead of Store Bought

Most store bought ranch dressings and dips contain pro-inflammatory vegetable oils, artificial preservatives and flavors, added sugars, etc.

And, since I love eating ranch pretty much on a weekly basis for dipping my vegetable sticks, as a salad dressing, etc., it’s important to me that I make sure it’s super healthy and uses only high quality ingredients.

Ingredients for Dairy Free Ranch Dressing & Dip

Once you realize how simple and easy this homemade ranch dressing is to put together, you’ll be making this on repeat every week.

  • Avocado Mayonnaise – To keep this ranch dressing super healthy, it’s key that you use a high quality mayonnaise. Personally, I like to use the Avocado Mayo from Primal Kitchen (use code KAYLA10 for 10% off) *To make this ranch dressing vegan, just use a vegan-friendly mayonnaise.
  • Coconut Cream – This is the cream that sits on top when you open a can of full fat coconut milk. This is what I use to keep this recipe dairy free instead of using sour cream and heavy cream.
  • Ranch Seasonings – The blend of ranch seasonings is imperative to making this taste like “real” ranch dressing.

How To Make Dairy Free Ranch Dressing & Dip

Making this dairy free ranch dressing only takes about 5 minutes and will last in the fridge all week! Here’s how to make it.

  • Mix the base. Add the mayonnaise and coconut cream to a bowl and whisk until fully combined.
  • Add the seasonings: Mix the seasonings into the base.
  • Store: Add to a glass mason jar with a lid and store in the fridge for up to 7 days.

  1. Thank you so much!
    I am already feeling better following your meal peeps and other tips and recipes.

     
  2. Can you use a substitute for coconut cream? I can have dairy but I still want the recipe to be healthy so what can I use instead of the coconut cream.
