Homemade Ranch

 

I follow someone on Instagram called Planks, Love, and Guacamole. She has a ton of recipes, and I have always wanted to try her ranch dressing. She said it was so good, you could almost drink it. I've never been a huge ranch person, but this is SO good. And the best part? It was SO easy! And you feel great because you know exactly what you're eating and know there aren't any chemicals. I want to make this over and over again!

Ingredients:
  • 1 room temperature egg
  • 2 tbsp. red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp. sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp. dried herbs (I used a mixed Italian seasoning. She suggests dill, cilantro, or parsley)
  • 2/3 c. extra light olive oil (make sure you use extra light! you can also use avocado oil)
  • 2 tbsp. full fat unsweetened canned coconut milk
Directions:
  1. Make sure your egg is room temperature (I had mine sit out for about 2 hours)
  2. Place everything BUT the oil and coconut milk in a blender and turn on for a few seconds on low
  3. Make sure oil is in something that pours well. Keeping blender on low, and as SLOWLY AS YOU CAN pour the oil into the blender. This should take you a few minutes. You are going to be tempted to pour a bunch, but it will only work if you do a little bit at a time
  4. Turn blender off, add in coconut milk, and turn on for a few more seconds to mix together
Enjoy!
