Prep Time 10 minutes
Servings8 2 tablespoon servings

Ingredients

  • 1- ounce package ranch dressing mix ignore directions on package
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • ½ cup buttermilk plus more if necessary to thin out the dressing
  • 1-2 limes enough for 2 tablespoons of fresh lime juice
  • 2 cloves garlic roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup green salsa
  • ½ cup chopped cilantro
  • Hot sauce to taste

Instructions

  • Place buttermilk, mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons of lime juice, and ranch mix in a blender. Add the garlic and green salsa and blend until smooth. Add the cilantro and pulse until the cilantro is well combined. Add hot sauce to taste. Chill for several hours before serving (if possible).

Notes

  • Store finished dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator and enjoy within 5-7 days for best results.
  • This dressing is obviously awesome on salads, but also as a dip for things like chicken fingers, veggies and steak fries.  If you're making our Baked Creamy Chicken Taquitos, this is pretty much required to go along with them.
