Ranch style salad dressing is very popular right now. I think one reason that it has become so popular is that it is very versatile. It makes a good dip as well.

To make Ranch Dressing easily, have the spices pre-mixed and stored in an airtight container. Before serving, add mayonnaise and buttermilk. Here is the recipe. Remember- be creative! Add, Subtract, and Substitute.

Spices
1 1/2 Tablespoon Parsley
1/2 Tablespoon Pepper
1/2 Tablespoon Dried Chives
1/4 Tablespoon Dried Tarragon
1 Tablespoon Salt
1/4 Tablespoon Oregano
1/2 Tablespoon Garlic Powder

Just before serving mix 1/2 Cup of Mayonnaise and 1/2 Cup of Buttermilk to 1 Tablespoon of the spice mixture. Mix well.

This tastes best when put in the refrigerator for one hour to chill and let the flavors mix.
