Why You’ll Love this Recipe
Quick & Easy to Make. Making your own seasoning blend takes only about 5 minutes, and you can whip up a large batch to have on hand whenever you need it. No more last-minute grocery store runs!
No Unnecessary Ingredients. Store-bought ranch seasoning packets, like Hidden Valley, often contain preservatives and vague “artificial flavors” meant to extend shelf life as they sit in warehouses. When you make it at home, you know exactly what’s in it—just real, flavorful ingredients.
Better, Fresher Flavor. Homemade seasoning mixes always taste better because they’re made with fresh, natural spices. The flavors are more robust than anything you’d find in a pre-packaged mix, and you can adjust the ingredients to suit your personal taste preferences.
Versatile & Multi-Purpose. There are so many ways to use homemade ranch seasoning! Mix it with sour cream for a creamy ranch dip, stir it into mayonnaise and buttermilk for a quick homemade ranch dressing, or use it as a seasoning for meats like chicken tenders. You can even add it to taco seasoning for a fun twist!
Convenient & Long-Lasting. Storing your homemade ranch seasoning is easy. Just keep it in a sealed mason jar in a dark, cool place like your spice cabinet, and it will stay fresh for months. Having a homemade mix on hand means you can quickly add ranch flavor to any dish without the need for a store-bought packet.

Is your recipe equal to the amount you would find in a single envelope in the store? So that when a recipe calls for a package of ranch dressing, this would be that amount.
What can I use instead of dried chives? If I don’t use the chives will the flavor of the mix be off?
Thank you. Love your blog 🙂
Hi! To be honest, I would just omit the chives if you don’t have it, and add a bit more of the other herbs. It wouldn’t be exactly the same of course, but it should still be tasty!
