Peace. Love. Ranch.

Homemade Ranch Dressing Dip

Our Hidden Valley® Ranch was first bottled in 1954, when the HVR founder Steve Henson bought a Ranch (go figure) outside of Santa Barbara, California. There, he perfected his signature tangy dressing recipe which became an instant hit. Here’s how we put the seasoning back into a drizzle — and dunk-worthy version of his OG showstopper.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Homemade Ranch Dressing is Easy Homemade Ranch Dressing is Easy. If you don't have a bottle handy, this recipe is an easy classic to fix from ingredients that you have a home (well, probably not the fresh spices, but you can make "to taste"). :)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Learning to love ranch with allergies! I am needing to relearn food prep now that I know about my food allergies. So happy I can make my own HVR since I cannot buy the bottled dressing now. Looking at other recipes to discover new meals since I need to replace the standbys I had loved. Thanks HVR!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ranch Dressing I LOVE this recipe. I make it ahead 4x the quantity and store it in the fridge. We use it on our salads every night. Also, it's great as a celery dip if you're on a diet.
