Classic Ranch flavours meet zesty Taco Seasoning in this Santa Fe Ranch Dip recipe! Made with just five ingredients, you can whip up this sauce in a couple of minutes.
It is light and creamy thanks to Greek yogurt while lime juice adds a pop of freshness. Use it for a vegetable dip, salad dressing and more!

The Ingredients
- Greek Yogurt - Ensure that you use plain (unsweetened) yogurt. Full fat or low fat will work. Or you could use regular yogurt if needed.
- Lime Juice - Lemon juice will also work.
- Taco Seasoning - If you don't have any on hand, you can substitute with: ½ tablespoon chili powder, ½ teaspoon cumin, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, ¼ teaspoon paprika and ⅛ teaspoon ground cayenne.
- Fine Sea Salt - Depending on how salty the taco seasoning is that you use, you may not need as much. Don't add any to start and then taste and add as needed.
- Dried Dill Weed
The Method
1. Mix. Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl.



Leftovers
To Store: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

- Lime Zest- Use the zest of 1 lime (the same lime you need for the juice) to add some extra freshness to the dip.
- If you would like to make it a thinner dressing consistency, you can mix in 1-2 tablespoon of water or milk.
