The Best Homemade Ranch Dressing Ever

A friend brought this dip with some veggies to a brunch that I hosted and I asked for the recipe!  It was delicious!  I especially love the dill!

Enjoy!

THE BEST HOMEMADE RANCH DRESSING EVER

1/2 cup Paleo mayo (recipe below)

1/2 cup coconut milk

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dill

Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

1)  Whisk all ingredients together to combine.  Season with salt and pepper.  Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

PALEO MAYO

1 egg, room temperature

2 tablespoons lemon juice or apple cider vinegar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon dry mustard

1 cup light olive oil

1)  In a tall glass (if using an immersion blender), or a blender, place the egg and lemon juice.  Let come to room temperature, about one hour.

2)  Add the salt and mustard.  Blend ingredients.

3)  While blending, very slowly pour in the olive oil.  Blend until it reaches desired consistency.  Store in the refrigerator for up to a week.

NOTES:

~I like to use Smart Balance non-GMO light mayo instead of making the homemade mayo, but either one works.

~If you make your own mayo, it is very important to use LIGHT olive oil!  Otherwise the olive oil flavor will be overwhelming!

~I do not recommend using canned coconut milk!  It's too thick and can have a gritty texture.  I use Silk unsweetened coconut milk that comes in a carton.

~I am eliminating garlic for a time, so I have been making it without the garlic powder and it's great.  If you do this, just increase the onion powder to 1 1/2 teaspoons.

~I don't store anything in plastic, so I recommend using a glass pint size mason jar!  If you double the recipe, it fills the mason jar perfectly!
