This creamy ranch dip is made with protein-packed Greek yogurt instead of mayo or sour cream, but tastes just like classic ranch dip. It takes just five minutes to prepare by mixing the Greek yogurt with a homemade ranch seasoning blend (or use store-bought!) and lemon juice. It’s a crave-able yet healthy dip for veggies, chips, pita, or even wings!

As a Registered Dietitian, I love to make vegetables taste more appealing by serving them with homemade sauces, dressings, and dips – like my creamy dill pickle dip.

When I want a thick and creamy dip for veggies, I reach for plain Greek yogurt as a healthy substitute for sour cream or mayonnaise. It adds a slightly tangy flavor akin to sour cream while maintaining that classic creamy texture.

Greek yogurt also works when making sweet dips, like my easy fruit dip made with honey, peanut butter, and Greek yogurt.

For this recipe, I make my own ranch seasoning because it’s SO easy and uses dried herbs I already have on hand, like dried chives, dried dill, and garlic powder.

Alternatively, you can use premade ranch seasoning powder. Just mix the Greek yogurt with half a tablespoon at a time into the Greek yogurt until the flavor is to your liking, and omit the lemon juice.

It won’t get much easier than this recipe! Simply add mix together Greek yogurt, dried herbs, and lemon juice in a small mixing bowl until it’s all combined.

Transfer it to a dip bowl for serving and garnish with dried chives.

Tip: If you want to turn this into a Greek yogurt ranch dressing, thin it out with milk or water until you’re able to drizzle it over a salad.

This is a wonderful healthy dip for veggies, potato chips, pita triangles, or crackers. It would be delicious as a dip for air fryer carrot fries or air fryer potatoes, or buffalo tofu!

You can also use this dip as a zesty sandwich spread, or can thin it out with a little cold water to make it into a ranch dressing for salads!

Store leftover Greek yogurt ranch dip in a small airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Give it a stir before serving again.
