RANCH DRESSING

TWO RECIPES

One Lovely Life
This recipe uses mayo
  • 1 cup mayonnaise (see above or substitute your favorite recipe)
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 Tbsp fresh dill or 1 tsp dried dill
  • salt and pepper, to taste.
  1. For every 1 cup of mayonnaise (the recipe above will yield the right amount), add 3 Tbsp coconut milk, cider vinegar, onion and garlic powders, and dill. Stir to mix well. Add additional coconut milk as needed to thin the mixture (it will naturally thicken somewhat in the refrigerator). Taste and add salt and pepper as desired.
  2. Ranch dressing will keep 1 week covered in the refrigerator.
This one uses avocado oil and an egg
Ingredients
  • 1 cup avocado oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk, I use canned, full fat
  • 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
  • 1 Tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • Large handful fresh herbs (my favorite is TON of fresh dill)
Instructions
  1. Add all of the ingredients to a glass jar (I like to use a wide-mouthed mason jar).
  2. Using an immersion blender, blend from the bottom of the jar and go up!
  3. Dressing will keep for 7 days in refrigerator.

Camping food

1. Pop popcorn before you leave and put in gallon size ziplock bags, thats a quick healthy snack
2.  Campfire Cones  Chocolate, peanut butter, and marshmallow, and ice cream cone
3. English muffin pizzas- sauce, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni or sliced meat. Or you can put eggs on it for breakfast
4.  Camping Breakfast Burritos:  Make these little burritos before heading out for your family camping trip.  Wrap them in tinfoil, toss them in warm coals, and done.  Breakfast is on it’s way!
5.  Campfire Corn on the Cob:  Wrap in tinfoil and add to the coals.  If you want some butter on your corn {who doesn’t?!} add some inside the aluminum foil.  The butter melts all over the corn as it roasts on the campfire.  YUM!
