Jalapeño Ranch

Good ol’ ranch dressing. Creamy, nostalgic, embarrassingly good on way too many things.

This ranch dressing is unbelievably addicting – tangy and just thick enough, with bites of garlic and onion, a little nod to the classic dill flavor, and a subtle kick from the fresh jalapeño that snuck its way in there.

I am a Midwestern girl who proudly loves her ranch dressing ON EVERYTHING and I don’t care who knows it.

I’m sorry in advance because once you have homemade jalapeño ranch, you will be ruined for all other store-bought ranch forever and ever. I take full responsibility.

Everybody goes in:

And creamy, salty, vinegary jalapeño ranch comes out:

Okay, let’s discuss what you could put this on.

• Salads
• Pizza – not gonna lie, had leftover veggie pizza for lunch and found myself drizzling this over the top
• Grilled chicken
• Roasted vegetables
• Pasta salad
• Tacos – yes for real
• Sandwiches or wraps
• Bowls
• Tomatoes, carrots, bell pepper strips, and more (honestly vegetables never tasted so good as when they are wearing a luscious coat of this jalapeño ranch)

Your possibilities are endless.

Ranch lovers: go wild.
