Bring some serious wow! to your salad with this Homemade Ranch Dressing. Simple, fresh ingredients make this a flavorful and memorable dressing that everyone will love!

Ranch, Only Better

There’s almost nothing my kids (okay, not just the kids) won’t dip in ranch dressing. Chicken nuggets and chicken wings, veggies, and even pizza. We top our baked potatoes with it and smother our salads in it. We’re basically ranch dressing connoisseurs over here, y’all. And once I made a batch of fresh homemade ranch dressing, it was hard to go back to the stuff in the bottle. Before you say you don’t have time, I’m here to say, you are not prepared for how easy this is to make. And once you taste it! You’ll skip the store-bought from here on out.

How to Make Homemade Ranch Dressing

Prep your ingredients by mincing the garlic and chopping the fresh dill and chives. Juice the lemon and set the juice aside. Then, in a medium mixing bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

I hope this homemade ranch brings some wow to your salads and snacks! When you make it, be sure to snap a picture and tag me on Instagram @thebakermama so I can see! I just love seeing how inspired and creative y’all get with the ideas I share.
