• 1 tbsp Ranch seasoning

• Salt and pepper to taste

Made with nonfat Greek yogurt, this healthier ranch is packed with protein while still delivering all the classic ranch flavor you love.

DIRECTIONS

1. Add all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth and creamy

2. Taste and season with salt and black pepper as needed.

3. If you'd like a thinner dressing, blend in a little more half-and-half or milk until it reaches your desired consistency.

4. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to develop.

Tips

• As the dressing chills, it will naturally thicken. Simply stir in a splash of half-and-half or milk before serving, and always shake before serving.

• For a spicy ranch, stir in 1 tablespoon of Frank's RedHot®, or hot sauce of choice, or more to taste

• For even more protein, you can substitute ¼ cup of the half-and-half with blended low-fat cottage cheese. It makes the ranch extra creamy while boosting the protein without significantly changing the flavor.

• Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for a brighter, tangier flavor.

• If serving as a dip, consider adding bacon bits and shredded cheddar cheese

• Fresh chopped dill, parsley, or chives make a delicious addition if you have them on hand.

Homemade Hippy Ranch is also a great complement to chicken nuggets and veggies.
