Green Goddess Ranch Dressing (High Protein)
An easy, creamy green goddess ranch made lighter with a Greek yogurt base. Blend it in minutes for a fresh, herby dressing or dip.
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1-2 Tbsp milk
- 3 Tbsp mayonnaise, use light if desired
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- ¼ cup chopped tender stem herbs (dill, basil, cilantro, mint, and/or parsley), lightly packed
- 2 Tbsp thinly sliced chives
- 1 Tbsp small diced red onion
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- ¾ tsp salt
- black pepper, to taste
- ½ tsp hot sauce
Equipment
- small blender with blender cup or immersion blender
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to your blender cup.
- Blend until completely smooth, pulsing your blender as needed.
- Taste, and add more herbs or milk as desired. Enjoy as a dressing or dip with salads, grain bowls, chopped veggies, or pita chips.
Notes
- I like to use equal parts parsley and dill.
- Use a blender cup with a minimum 24 oz capacity.
- For a thinner dressing, use more milk. For a thicker dip, omit the milk or use less.
- To use an immersion blender, place all ingredients in a tall container with a flat bottom. Use your immersion blender to blend until smooth.
- For a no-chop option, add the garlic, herbs, and onion whole. You'll need one garlic clove, a small handful of both herbs and chives, and about 1/8 of your red onion. Adjust to taste.
