That is how I have always felt about my Homemade Ranch Dressing, you want to drink it out of the jar. As much as I love it, it was time to mix things up!

I have added many ingredients to my Ranch Dressing over the years, chipotle, guacamole, even barbecue sauce. But I wasn’t in the mood for Mexican or tangy, just different…..Avocado!

How to make Avocado Ranch Dressing:

So I peeled a large avocado and placed it in a large bowl. I squeezed so lemon juice on top {about a Tablespoon} and mashed it until it was smooth{ish}…..

Place the Avocado Ranch Dressing in the refrigerator to chill before serving. You may need to add additional milk to thin if it appears to be too thick.

Store unused dressing in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. I have used mine 2 weeks later, well I think it was 2 weeks, I couldn’t remember when I made it and I didn’t drop dead so……

  1. Oh man…2 of my very favorite things – Avocado and Ranch Dressing! Looks like it would be dangerously addicting; I bet I would be making things, just so I could have an excuse to use this dressing on top! 🙂

  2. Visiting from Treasure Box Tuesday. I love avocado and have made an avocado salad dressing before which I loved, I shall be trying this soon! I would love for you to stop by and share this and other recipes with us over at Sweet and Savoury Sunday. Have a great day!

  3. While I very rarely eat “creamy” type dressings, this sounds amazing! I would probably substitute my trusty plain Greek yogurt in for 1/2 the mayo though (you know, resolutions and such…) Saving and Pinning!

  4. I love Ranch dressing – I use it on everything! This avocado version sounds delicious – I need to give it a try! 🙂

  5. Oh I love homemade dressing…we never buy it! I tend to make vinaigrettes though rather than the creamy ones…no idea why. This looks delicious! Spreading lots of foodie love for you and sharing to my Facebook page right now! Thanks for sharing it with us at #FoodieFriDIY!

  6. I have been searching for a good ranch dressing made without buttermilk (I’m deathly allergic!). I could never find one that quite delivered the flavor my family craved.We love this recipe, only switching lime juice for the lemon. Thanks so much for sharing.

  7. I made this dressing yesterday it is amazing!!! Even my hubby liked it! Definitely my favorite thing about Whole 30! ❤️
