Home­made Avo­ca­do Ranch Dress­ing is DELISH! It’s fresh and herba­ceous from the pars­ley, creamy from the home­made mayo and the avo­ca­do and so fla­vor-rich from the herbs. It has the per­fect amount of acid to bal­ance the creamy, rich­ness of the healthy fats. It real­ly does taste like ranch dressing!

Best news ever? It’s crazy sim­ple! Throw every­thing into the smooth­ie cup attach­ment of your blender and blend until it’s com­plete­ly smooth and com­bined. It’s that easy!

We use it on sal­ads, of course, but it’s also good on wraps and for dip­ping your favorite crunchy veg­etable snacks. Dip chick­en nuggets or driz­zle it on fish tacos. It’s fab­u­lous on eggs, too! So many pos­si­bil­i­ties! I can’t wait to hear all the ways you enjoy serv­ing it.

How to Make Homemade Avocado Ranch Dressing

It’s quick and easy to pull this dress­ing, togeth­er. I use a *high speed blender with a smooth­ie cup attach­ment. You might be able to pull this off in a reg­u­lar blender. I’m just not sure. If the blender you use can han­dle thick­er sauces and small amounts, it’s def­i­nite­ly a pos­si­bil­i­ty. Ide­al­ly, I would rec­om­mend a high speed blender like my Nin­ja, or a Vita­Mix or BlendTec. Here’s what I use.

  1. Rough chop the parsley.
  2. Add it to the blender cup/pitcher.
  3. Open the can of coconut milk and dump it into a con­tain­er large enough to whisk it in. The “cream” from coconut milk, sep­a­rates from the coconut milk and comes to the top of the can. Whisk it all back togeth­er, before you mea­sure the coconut milk for this recipe.
  4. Add the remain­ing ingredients.
  5. Pulse the blender a few times to get things start­ed, then blend on high, until the dress­ing is smooth and creamy.

Store your avo­ca­do ranch in the refrig­er­a­tor, just like reg­u­lar ranch. You can keep it in can­ning jars or any con­tain­er with a lid. I like to use the squeeze-style bot­tles you often see used for ketchup or mus­tard. That makes it so easy to dress a sal­ad and con­trol the amount you’re using!

How do you use ranch dress­ing at your house? Is it for more than just sal­ads? Leave me a com­ment and let me know how you’re using this scrump­tious Home­made Avo­ca­do Ranch Dress­ing. I can’t wait for you to give it a try!
