- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise and sour cream, ensuring they are thoroughly blended until smooth and creamy.

- Taste the dressing and adjust seasonings if needed. You can add more herbs or spices to enhance the flavor profile.
- Transfer the ranch dressing to an airtight container or glass jar with a tight-fitting lid.

Tips
- Use high-quality mayonnaise and sour cream for the best flavor and texture. Full-fat versions work best for a truly keto-friendly recipe.
- Allow the dressing to sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This resting time helps the herbs and spices blend and intensify their flavors.
- For a smoother consistency, you can use an immersion blender or whisk vigorously to ensure all ingredients are perfectly combined.
- Customize the herb blend by adding fresh herbs like chives or parsley for an extra flavor boost.
- If the dressing is too thick, thin it out with a little heavy cream or unsweetened almond milk. If it's too thin, add a bit more mayonnaise.
- Always taste and adjust seasonings. Everyone's palate is different, so feel free to tweak the salt, pepper, and herb quantities to your liking.
