Greek Yogurt Ranch Dressing

Last week I shared my southwest chicken salsa ranch salad, and I promised that I would post the recipe for the greek yogurt ranch as soon as possible aka when I ran out. Well, that was yesterday. 

We go through ranch so fast. Lately, for lunch I’ve been air-frying chicken and tucking them into wraps with lettuce, onion, peppers and then drizzling with a little buffalo sauce and yogurt ranch. Ps. the combination of buffalo sauce and ranch dressing is phenomenal. Just saying. However I also serve it with cut up carrots and bell peppers and most importantly with pizza.

I kept this recipe pretty simple, using dried herbs and spices (because I have plenty in my pantry), plain non-fat yogurt and mayo because the fat of the mayo helps mellow out the tanginess of the yogurt. Buttermilk for that classic bright flavor. And the total time it takes to whip this up is minutes. Which I love. Then after a little time spent in the fridge this Greek yogurt ranch dressing is ready.

Thin out the greek yogurt ranch dressing with milk (or buttermilk) until it reaches a desired consistency. For me, it was 1/4 cup. To keep this lower in fat, use 2% or skim milk.

Lastly, transfer the yogurt ranch to a bottle or container with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Doing this, will allow the herbs and spices to soften and marry.
