Ingredients

• 1 cup Fat-free plain Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Skim milk
• 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried dill
• 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional, for extra spice)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the fat-free plain Greek yogurt and skim milk until smooth and well combined.

Step 2

Add the apple cider vinegar and whisk again to incorporate. This adds tang and mimics the buttermilk flavor traditionally found in ranch dressing.

Step 3

Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, dried parsley, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.

Step 4

If you prefer extra spice, stir in the optional hot sauce, adjusting the quantity to suit your taste.

Step 5

Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. You can add more salt or spices for a stronger flavor.

Step 6

Once fully combined, transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container.

Step 7

Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together. Shake or stir before serving.

Step 8

Serve chilled over salads, as a dip for vegetables, or as a topping for wraps and sandwiches.
