Our low sodium Ranch Seasoning Mix is a great low sodium spice blend to use when you want to decrease your intake of salt.

If you’re trying to decrease your sodium intake, you might be missing some of your favorite seasonings, so here is our dietitian approved blend, which can replace the pre-made packets or dressing from the grocery store. This is just the seasoning, however we have included the instructions on how to turn it in to a dip or dressing using the seasoning, milk, and mayo, sour cream, or Greek yogurt.

Try making the dip to go with your buffalo cauliflower, your chicken nuggets, your pizza, or your vegetables. Using dried herbs, this ranch seasoning mix can last about one year in an airtight container, but this is so delicious that it definitely won’t last a whole year!

You can use it for so many things beyond dip or dressing, though. Try to season your chicken with it, like this recipe, or add to roasted potatoes. The possibilities are truly endless, so get creative with it!

If you’re looking for other seasoning blends, we have a whole blog that includes 6 recipes, including this ranch mix. You can find that post here.

All 6 of the seasoning blends are salt-free, so if you need to watch your sodium intake, these are for you! The other five recipes are Greek seasoning, taco seasoning, Montreal steak seasoning, BBQ seasoning, and chili seasoning.
