This is a delicious dressing- I make it as a topping for
Sweet Pork Tacos, but this is also good for a salad or for dipping. This stuff is so good that I could seriously just drink it straight..... or maybe I
have done that. Hmmm......
The full recipe makes a ton, so I always cut it in half when I make this (recipe reflected below). This recipe uses dry Ranch dressing mix powder, and the full recipe calls for a whole package of the dry mix. It's a pain to use a half package, but I found a larger container of dry Ranch and you can just measure out however much you want. One full package of regular Ranch is 3 Tablespoons, so I use 1 1/2 Tablespoons for my recipe. (By the way- the package of dry Ranch, below, isn't available where I live... (for you locals, lol!); I got it when I visited my mom. But I'm sure that those Stateside can find it).
