Greek Yogurt Ranch Dip – the Healthy Alternative
Love ranch? If you’re buying store-bought, bottled dressing and dip you likely already know how terrible it is for you. Those bottled dressings, dips and mixes have loads of mystery ingredients that are not healthy. These ingredients are things like high fructose corn syrup, corn oil, soybean oil, canola oil, MSG and others that are terrible for your body. This 5-ingredient healthy ranch dip recipe tastes just like ranch AND is a much healthier option!

How to Meal Prep this Greek Yogurt Ranch Dip
Find a container that works for you – I like these Snack Attack Containers by Sistema. (pictured below) The have large section for all of your veggies and a smaller section for your dip. The lid seals tightly with side clamps, making it nearly leak-proof!
These are perfect for packing in your lunchbox and a great way to plan ahead when you know you’ll want and need a healthy snack.
