Base Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 4 tbsp ranch seasoning
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
Flavor Enhancers
- 1/2 cup prepared salsa verde
- 1/4 cup jarred jalapeños with juice
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1 bunch cilantro (about 1 to 1.5 cups)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add mayonnaise, ranch seasoning, sour cream, buttermilk, salsa verde, jarred jalapeños with their juice, lime juice, and cilantro to a blender or food processor.
- Blend Until Smooth: Use the highest setting on your blender or food processor to liquify and mix all ingredients until the dressing has a smooth, creamy consistency.
- Chill Before Serving: Refrigerate the dressing for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. The dressing can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Notes
- For a milder dressing, reduce the amount of jalapeños or omit the juice from the jar.
- Add extra buttermilk to thin the dressing if a pourable consistency is preferred.
- This dressing works well as a dip for vegetables, wings, or as a flavorful salad dressing.
- Fresh cilantro adds brightness; if unavailable, substitute with fresh parsley for a different but pleasant flavor.
