Paleo (dairy free) Ranch Dip and Mayo




One thing I missed was ranch dip when I became allergic to dairy, as soon as I discovered how to make my own healthy paleo mayo I began trying things to make a ranch dip with it...and it finally worked! I am going to first give you the recipe for the mayo then the add-ins to make a ranch dip, so win-win!


Mayo:
2/3 cup avocado oil
1 tsp. fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 egg
a pinch of salt
1 tsp. dijon mustard

put into a deep cup and using an immersion blender, start with the blender at the bottom and blend until creamy working your way up, this should take no longer than 15 seconds and should keep in the fridge in a container for about a week.

To make the mayo into ranch:
mice about 1 tbsp. fresh dill
1 minced green onion, white and green parts
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. onion powder

mix with a fork until incorporated...
(all these herbs are to taste so adjust as needed)
