This low carb ranch dressing recipe has become a staple in our home. We use it as a dip for fresh veggies, salad dressing and even over grilled fish. It is the perfect keto ranch dressing with the added healthy fat boost from the avocado. It takes the traditional ranch dressing recipe to a whole new level.
The second I made this low carb avocado ranch dressing recipe, I vowed never to buy store bought ranch again. I have a feeling you just might make the same pledge. Making your own low carb salad dressing recipes and condiments will not only save you money, but they are also better for you. You can skip all the unnecessary additives by making your own.
They are so many different ways to change is up. Check out my Bacon Ranch Dressing variation or my Southwestern Ranch Dip. I even have a Buffalo Ranch Dressing recipe in my Primal Low Carb Kitchen Cookbook.

June 20, 2013 at 9:47 pmThis sounds pretty amazing! How well does it keep in the fridge or should it be used up right away?

September 5, 2013 at 2:42 pmI think you could keep it in the fridge for up to a week… If it lasts that long 🙂

October 12, 2017 at 9:59 amLove all your recipes. This is a great website…the best one for Keto in my estimation. Appreciate all the hard work you put into to creating this site. I love avocados but can’t find them anywhere near where I live. but will save this recipe for when i find some good avocados.

May 29, 2018 at 2:04 pmThis looks really yummy. I don’t have an avocado now but I do have some quacamole.. Do you think I could use that in place of the avocado?? I think I am going to try it. Thanks for all your hard work.

February 12, 2019 at 12:39 pmThis is a wonderful dressing! I used more apple cider vinegar (2 T) and then blended with my magic bullet to blend and added jalepano’s to spice it up a bit! Really yummy.
Anita says
February 22, 2019 at 2:34 pmThat sounds fantastic, Liz! I put cilantro and crushed red pepper in mine and thought that was great. Next time I’ll try the jalapeno. Great tip!

April 6, 2019 at 11:36 amMine is more like a dip. Thick. To make it spread further for salads, could I just add water to it? I feel like that’s a stupid question, but I wanted to be sure.
