Notes

  • This recipe makes roughly 1 ¾ cups of ranch dressing.  A serving size is 2 tablespoon.
  • You can use plain yogurt in place of the sour cream.
  • Can also substitute with ¾ teaspoon of dried dill and parsley.

Meal Prep and Storage

  • To Prep Ahead: It is highly recommended you serve this sauce soon after making for the freshest taste and the best color.
  • To Store: Pour into a tall airtight jar. The less of the sauce that is exposed to the air, the better. Tightly place a piece of plastic wrap over the top of the sauce to prevent it from turning brown. It should last for up to 3-4 days. It will start to change colors slightly after one or two days, but is still OK to eat.
  • To Freeze: This is not recommended since both mayo and sour cream are used. They will separate upon thawing.
