HOMEMADE RANCH DRESSING
PRINT PDF
My husband loves to dip vegetables in blue cheese dressing. To make this a healthier snack for him, I decided to make homemade ranch dressing then add blue cheese crumbles. While there are less additives / preservatives in the homemade version, dressing is still high in calories.
This is best the next day; it thickens and the flavors intensify. Recipe inspired via a submission to allrecipes.com.
