My sister Hannah loves salads with ranch dressing and homemade Italian-seasoned croutons. This dressing recipe is so creamy and good, yet light and fresh. Instead of buying a jar or bottled ranch dressing, cut up some of your favorite vegetables and try making this easy salad dressing. Pour this ranch dressing over your favorite mixed greens, a grilled chicken-topped salad or dip some carrot sticks in it. Hope you try this easy, creamy, cool ranch dressing for a luncheon salad plate, to top a salad course at dinner, for an appetizer plate during a special gathering or even a simple snack plate. Best of luck with this ranch dressing recipe and enjoy.
