A creamy, tangy, and protein-packed ranch dip made with Greek yogurt and herbs, perfect for fitness lovers seeking a healthy snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240g) plain Greek yogurt, full-fat or 2%
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried chives (or 2 teaspoons fresh, finely chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley (or 2 teaspoons fresh)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon buttermilk powder

Instructions

  1. Place 1 cup (240g) of plain Greek yogurt into a mixing bowl.
  2. Add 1 teaspoon dried dill, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon dried chives, and 1 teaspoon dried parsley to the yogurt. If using fresh herbs, double the amount.
  3. Squeeze in 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, then add 1/4 teaspoon sea salt and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper.
  4. If desired, sprinkle in 1 tablespoon buttermilk powder and mix well.
  5. Whisk all ingredients together until smooth and evenly combined.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning by adding more salt, lemon juice, or herbs as desired.
  7. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let flavors meld and the dip thicken.
  8. If the dip is too thick after chilling, stir in a teaspoon of water or milk to loosen it. If too thin, add more Greek yogurt.

Notes

Use thick, creamy Greek yogurt brands like Fage or Chobani for best texture. Fresh herbs can be used at double the amount of dried herbs. Let the dip rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes for best flavor. Adjust seasoning gradually to avoid over-salting. Optional buttermilk powder adds authentic ranch tang. For dairy-free, substitute Greek yogurt with unsweetened coconut yogurt and replace buttermilk powder with apple cider vinegar.
