saltines? in my salad dressing mix? hmmmm, will definitely be giving this recipe a try!:confused:
I know it sounds weird, but it really is delicious 🙂
You can make fiesta ranch with it as well. It breaks down to about .11 per recipe
GroceryBudget101.com- – Copycat Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing & Fiesta Ranch Mix | Copycat Recipes
how come the amounts in this recipe and your other hidden valley with fiesta are so different when mixing up? 1 T instead of 2 T. of mix and then 1 -1/4 cup sour cream to 1/4 c.
milk and then 1 cup mayo and 1 cup buttermilk. Whats the differences? Thanks!
2 different recipes/uses and consistency. We usually use this one GroceryBudget101.com- – Copycat Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing & Fiesta Ranch Mix | Copycat Recipes but it depends on what we have on hand for mixing it.
for anyone who is very allergic to gluten here is the recipe i have to use:
2 Tablespoons each:
Dill
Parsley
chives
4 Tbls. onion powder
2-3 tsp. pepper
1-4 tsp salt (I use Real Salt)
1/4 to 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
(All ingredients are dried)
Mix and shake well in a small glass jar (8 oz. works well) and store at room temperature.
To Make dressing:
Shake well before measuring. Stir about 1 1/2 to 2 tsp.
dry mix into 1 cup or any combination of the following: buttermilk, mayo, or sour cream. (I prefer half mayo and half buttermilk but my friend prefers sour cream)
You can add a minced clove of garlic or a splash of red wine vinegar to finish it off.
If you don’t use fresh garlic you can add 1 Tbls of garlic powder right into the original mix when you make it up.
Yours sound awesome but I’m so very allergic to gluten now so I had to come up with something that works great for us.
how long can it be stored?
has anyone ever used their homemade yogurt to make this mix?
