HomeMade Ranch Mix – Dairy Free or Whole 30 Friendly
Well, I told you I was kind of on a kick to come up with home made dry mixes! No more packets for me! I love making all my spice and sauce mixes from scratch, and personally I think they taste so much better, and I know they are better for you, too! This healthy homemade ranch mix has become a staple on our house. Having a dairy free husband has made me be a little more creative especially with sauces and dressings. You could make this with regular milk for sure, but we make it with almond milk and I think it tastes just as good. Just don’t accidentally make it with vanilla almond milk because that would be nasty. Just ask my brother 😉 Haha. *Update: This could also be made Whole 30 friendly as well! You would just use the homemade mayo and almond milk with the spice mix!
This is super simple and fast to throw together. I usually just make the dry mix one batch at a time, but you could easily make it in bulk and just scoop out one portion at a time. And if you live next to a Winco, their bulk spices become your new best friend. 🙂
Add all your dry ingredients to a small mixing bowl (or shaker) and toss together.
Add in the mayo, and almond milk and slowly whisk it until it’s creamy and smooth. Now when you think you have it all mixed, it might still look a little lumpy. It’s ok, that’s what olive oil mayo does, just keep whisking and it will eventually all smooth out. I promise. 🙂
Store your homemade ranch dressing in a jar or air tight container in the fridge for up to a couple of weeks.

Why do you use Olive Oil Mayo instead of regular mayo?
Simply for the nutritional info. If you compare, it’s only 35 calories per table spoon instead on 100. Plus I like the flavor a lot more 🙂
Is that tablespoons or teaspoons?
The little t is for teaspoons and the big T is for Tablespoons. 🙂
