A Simple, Easy, and Dairy-Free Jalapeño Ranch Recipe
One of the most challenging aspects of eating a healthy and balanced diet can be finding condiments that are not full of sugar, unhealthy oils, preservatives, or other junky ingredients.
When I first started paying attention to the ingredients in the food I was buying, I realized that some of the salad dressings I grew up loving were full of ingredients that were not supportive of my overall health goals. Creamier dressings, like ranch, are often particularly notorious.
That being said, there is really nothing like a good ranch dressing to bring your salad to life or make your veggies even more delicious. Thankfully, this healthy jalapeño ranch dressing recipe has got you covered! It’s made from only real food ingredients for a delicious dressing and dip that you will love!
All the Ingredients You Need to Make This Creamy Dressing
Mayonnaise: To keep this recipe Whole30 compatible, you’ll need to use to a Whole30 compatible mayonnaise. Look for one made with high quality oil and no added sugar.
Avocado: This is the secret to giving the jalapeño ranch a thicker, creamier consistency.
Full Fat Coconut Milk: You can usually find full fat coconut milk in the Asian aisle of your local grocery store. It will come in a can and not in the refrigerated section.
Jalapeño Pepper: This of course gives the ranch that jalapeño flavor and a little spice.
Lime Juice: Fresh lime juice gives this ranch a delicious citrus flavor.
Fresh Herbs: This dressing uses a combination of fresh dill, parsley, and chives to achieve the best flavor.
Garlic: This is a must-have ingredient. If possible, be sure to use fresh garlic.
I hope you give this Jalapeño Ranch Dressing a try! It is perfect for salads, dipping, and more!

I haven’t tried duet but I’m so
Excited to do it. I have just started trying to eat healthy, slowly but surely. I was wondering once I make this dressing, how long can I keep refrigerated?
We made this over the weekend and it was delicious! Chose to use the whole jalapeno and we were very pleased with the spice level. Loved the amount of freshness from the herbs!
Super easy, super flavorful. I put all of the ingredients in my Nutribullet and it turned out great. We like spicy, but I still used only half a jalapeno. Just the right amount of spice, will not overwhelm what you put it on. I might add more jalapeno if I was specifically making a Latin dish, like taco salad. We used normal salad ingredients – butter lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, a little onion and bell pepper for my husband. It was light and fresh. So happy to have found a tasty, creamy Whole30 dressing!

Hi, Geraldine! it should last in the fridge for a week!
I havent tried this yet but i was wondering if there’s anything you can use to substitute the avocado with as I do not like avocados.
Or do you not taste it?
Hi, Adam! I would recommend using the avocado. You cannot taste it in the dressing.

For the dill and chives, I’m assuming that’s fresh herbs, right? Are the oz volume or weight? Thanks!
Yep! Fresh herbs and I mueasured them by volume!
