Mouthwatering Mondays

Thanks for visiting! Don't miss a single post by following us.       

I’ve decided to try out a food/recipe meme to see if this will work better for sharing recipes. I’ll share a favorite recipe each Monday. It may be something we recently had on our menu or just a family favorite. I’ve already shared our Chicken Alfredo recipe and a semi-swedish meatball recipe and a few others. At the end of the recipe, I will also share our weekly meal plan which just may give you a glimpse into next weeks Mouthwatering Monday. So here we go… This week I thought I’d share a few recipes that we keep in our everyday recipe binder which is also home to our weekly menu.

Buttermilk Ranch Dressing
Ingredients
1 tbsp Hidden Valley® Salad Dressing and Seasoning Mix
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp Season All
1/4 tsp garlic powder
Dash of paprika
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup mayo

Directions
Whisk all ingredients together. We use a dressing shaker so the kids can make the dressing without spilling it. For best taste, put dressing in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.

Makes 16 ounces.
