This recipe is a work in progress ... My homemade Ranch Dressing using yogurt as a base.
I do not like many store-bought dressings because they always contain soybean oil or canola oil or additives I don't like. So I make my own when I can. It's fresher and better for you.
This is so easy to mix up and it tastes great. My 11-year-old loves it. It can be used as a salad dressing or a veggie dip.
Simply mix the following ingredients at least an hour before you need it so that the flavors have a chance to blend (overnight in the fridge would be even better). Always store it in the fridge since it is yogurt. (I keep mine up to a week.)
3/4 cup plain yogurt
Scant 1\2 teaspoon garlic powder
1\2 teaspoon onion powder
1\4 teaspoon salt
1\4 teaspoon sugar
1\2 teaspoon dried parsley
Dash of ground black pepper
As I said, it's a work in progress. I am still tweaking it. You can always add more or less of the ingredients or include herbs or spices of your own liking. If you like it thinner, try adding a touch of water or buttermilk or something like it. After making your own dressing with healthy yogurt, it's hard to go back to the yucky store-bought stuff.
