I have officially become one of those people who put ranch dressing on everything.

This is a staple in my fridge. I always have some on hand. Part of my meal prep every week! So easy and delicious. I especially love it on my omelettes and with carrots.
★★★★★
Yes!! It’s a staple in our fridge as well! I’ve never had it on an omelet so i’ll have to try that.
This is so delicious! I make it almost every week- we eat it with everthing
★★★★★
Aw SAME! Thank you for sharing!!!
Just made this dressing to eat with air fried wings and I love! I hardly ever eat ranch because I’m dairy free but now that I have discovered this, I will always have some on hand! My pantry was lacking in light olive oil (subbed in avo oil) and dill (subbed in Italian seasoning) and it worked!
★★★★★
Ah I’m so glad!!! It is such a good dairy free option!
Love this! Easily made in a blender or food processor if you don’t have an immersion blender!
★★★★★
Ah thank you for sharing that!! I am so glad!!
Loved this! It was super delicious. I must ask though, is the egg necessary? The raw factor makes me nervous.
★★★★★
Hi! So glad you enjoyed it! I don’t worry about the raw egg personally. The vinegar in the dressing should kill any bacteria, but if you’re worried you can google pasteurizing eggs at home and quickly do that before making the sauce!
A life saver during whole 30. So simple and so delicious!

awesome!! thank you!
