Ranch Dressing is perfect for so much more than salads and crudité (although it's great for both of those too). Everyone’s favorite creamy dressing is versatile enough to marinate meats, dip chips, drizzle on tempura veggies, and mix into a delicious bowl of mashed potatoes or cauliflower. 

Primal Kitchen upped the ante on this classic salad dressing with high-quality ingredients like avocado oil and Certified Humane® cage-free egg yolks in our delicious, crave-worthy original ranch. Plant-based eaters can enjoy that signature creamy, tangy flavor with Primal Kitchen Vegan Ranch.

To get you in the ranch spirit and help you use up every last drop in that beautiful bottle, we've compiled a quick roundup of our most-loved recipes with ranch dressing. Make the most of this grocery cart go-to with quick, easy dishes brimming with homestyle flavor that everyone in your family will enjoy.
