And I love to make my own ranch dressing - I like how it tastes and I like that there are no acids or preservatives.
Here is my recipe:
1 cup mayo
1 cup buttermilk
2/3 tsp. dried parsley flakes
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
1/2 tsp. kosher salt
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. onion powder
dash of dill
Combine all and mix well (whisk). Chill. Makes 2 cups, or 16 two tbsp. servings.
Now that you have this delicious ranch dressing, you need a great way to store in in your fridge!
I used to keep in in a mixing bowl, with saran wrap over it and then spoon it out onto my salad, but then I had a brilliant idea - store it in a bottle!
I found a bottle at Walmart for $2, I think and I had just bought a pack of sticker letters - with no real purpose in mind. So I added stickers and mod podged over them!

It was way easier than passing around a giant bowl and spooning out dressing, but it was still a bit messy.
If I were doing this project again, I think I'd get a squeeze bottle, more like the generic ketchup bottles. And even with mod podge, some of my stickers peeled off after the dishwasher. I've discovered they make Mod Podge ® Dishwasher Safe - has anyone used this and what were the results?
