  2. Michael REVIEW:

    This has been our go to ranch recipe for years now and it's both simple and tasty. Try it once and you'll never buy bottled ranch again.

    This dressing is wonderful! Who needs to go to a valley for dressing anymore? Everyone I've served this dressing to has raved about it. I did use 1/8 of a teaspoon of garlic powder instead of a clove of fresh, that is the only change I made and it was delicious. Thank you!

  4. Morningdove REVIEW:

    Absolutely delicious and easy to make without any of MSG or propylene glycol etc. that store bought dressings have. No more store bought dressings! Made the dressing for our Thanksgiving dinner salad...oh so yummy!

  11. michele REVIEW:

    The recipe is delicious; it lived up to my memories of a buttermilk ranch dressing. Our kids even love it. Today was the first day my daughter ever made her own salad - using this dressing. Also I used garlic powder and skipped the parmesan.
