The day after I made this, Darryl had asked me to pack him a lighter lunch, knowing he was in for a huge dinner. Salad it is! Perfect timing to have him try out my Homemade Cilantro Lime Ranch Dressing!
Here is his salad, packed in an EasyLunchbox. The salad dressing is in a Mini Dipper, along with some fresh raspberries for dessert. I also had to include a Lunchbox Love Note for my Darryl 🙂

This dressing is like gold! Amazing! Only thing I did different was I used almond milk and added a few tbsp at a time to get desired consistency.
Very fresh and flavorful dressing! I had a handful of cilantro I needed to use and limes on hand so I searched my pins and found this. I had to substitute green onions for chives, but it was delicious!
I plan on making it soon! Sounds delicious & uses my homegrown cilantro & chives. I noted that I have 2 adult kids that we’ve called Big D & Little D for years too!
Have not made this recipe yet but I do have a question. When you say Greek yogurt, is there a specific flavor??? Is it just plain yogurt, vanilla yogurt, or any other flavor?
Plain Greek yogurt should be used for this recipe 🙂
Yum! Question, is the serving for the nutrition facts 2 Tablespoons like I to is with most dressings? Thanks! Sorry if I just missed this somewhere.
Yes, about 2 Tablespoons.
