Makes about 2-1/2 cups
Texas cowboys and cowgirls dip their egg sandwiches in this stuff for
breakfast, they dunk their fried onion rings in it at lunch, and they
cover their broccoli with it at dinner. It's the ultimate dipping
sauce for cold pizza, the perfect accompaniment to crudites, Andoh,
yeahit's also a salad dressing.
Once you learn how to make your own ranch dressing, you'll save
yourself a fortune on the stuff. And it's really easy. You can even
use yogurt instead of sour cream to make a low-fat version. Add some
minced herbs from your garden if you like. Chives are another great
addition.
