How long will ranch dip last?

The dip needs to go in the refrigerator inside an air tight container. It will last up to 1 week if stored properly.

IS RANCH DRESSING AND RANCH DIP THE SAME?

No, they are different. Ranch dressing is thinner to use on salad and it also has mayonnaise in it. It is really easy to make though and we have a simple homemade ranch dressing recipe.

Ranch dip does not have mayo as an ingredient. It is also much thicker so that it can be used for dipping.

While different, both are very easy to make and so delicious. I really like making homemade dips and dressing.

They taste a ton better than anything at the grocery store and take just minutes to make. It is also inexpensive to make.

It is so easy that we almost always have some of this in the fridge. Everyone enjoys it for dipping and eats more veggies because of it. I consider that a win for Mom.

Plus, I like knowing exactly what I am giving my family. Those packets often have lots of extra ingredients and hard to pronounce words.

I just feel better making homemade dip. Plus, it is so easy and really not anymore work.
