Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried dill
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • teaspoon cayenne pepper optional, for a touch of heat
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives finely chopped (for garnish)

Equipment

  • 1 Mixing Bowl (1-quart)
  • 1 Silicone Spatula
  • 1 Measuring Spoon Set
  • 1 Herb Scissors
  • 1 Airtight Storage Container

Method
 

  1. Combine the Base: Scoop the Greek yogurt into a medium-sized mixing bowl. This will serve as the creamy foundation of your dip, offering a rich, tangy flavor while keeping the recipe high in protein and low in fat.
  2. Add the Dry Seasonings: Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, and kosher salt. These spices create the signature ranch flavor, transforming plain yogurt into a savory, well-balanced dip.
  3. Stir in the Flavor Boosters: Drizzle in the Worcestershire sauce and, if you enjoy a little spice, add the cayenne pepper. These ingredients add depth and a slight kick, making the dip more flavorful and exciting.
  4. Mix Until Smooth: Using a silicone spatula or spoon, stir everything together thoroughly until the seasonings are fully incorporated, and the mixture is creamy and uniform in texture.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, sprinkle with fresh chopped chives, and serve immediately with crunchy vegetables, crackers, or as a spread for wraps and sandwiches.

Notes

  • Storage Tip: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir well before serving again as the seasonings may settle.
  • Make It Spicier: Increase the cayenne pepper or add a dash of hot sauce for a bolder, spicy version.
  • Thicker or Thinner Texture: Use full-fat Greek yogurt for extra creaminess or whisk in 1–2 teaspoons of milk if you prefer a thinner dip.
  • Serving Suggestions: Perfect for dipping fresh carrots, celery sticks, bell peppers, pita chips, or even as a lighter alternative to mayonnaise in sandwiches and wraps.
