My family is absolutely obsessed with ranch dressing. If the kids have veggies, they want to dip them in ranch. So I’ve tried to change up the way we make ranch and have ditched the sour cream!
Now sour cream isn’t bad. I love the stuff. But by swapping out sour cream with greek yogurt I not only am cutting calories but I’m increasing protein! All in all I’m very excited about the swap and the kids can’t seem to tell the difference.
And Greek yogurt can be subbed for more than just sour cream. I also swap it out for mayo in some recipes.
- 1 cup greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons ranch mix (see below for ranch mix)
Mix ingredients together until well combined. Let sit in the fridge overnight. Serve with your favorite veggies or chips.
- 2 tablespoons dried parsley
- 3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/8 teaspoon dried thyme
Combine ingredients and store in an air-tight container for up to 3 months. Feel free to double or triple and use as needed.
I never thought about mixing Greek yogurt with ranch, but I am intrigued and want to try it.
I think that greek yogurt would be awesome! I will try it for sure! Pinned to remind myself 🙂 Thanks for sharing.
I love making dip with Greek yogurt! Tastes the same, and the calorie-reduction is awesome!
Yum!! I LOVE ranch, but not all the fat that comes with it. What a great idea to use greek yogurt I’m going to try this for labor day!
Thank you so much for sharing this. our family eats a lot of ranch too and the store brand that is suppose to be healthier tastes yucky I will be trying this for dinner tonight and see what they think.
I love this post and may have to give it a try. 🙂
I’ve never made dip with greek yogurt, thanks for the idea!
I really like this idea. Why not if it takes the same or similar? I am ashamed to say I haven’ tried Greek yogurt!
What a great idea. I need to try that.
This sounds really good. I love the idea of adding the greek yogurt. I never thought to do that before. Can’t wait to give it a try.
