Quick Ranch Dip Mix
Adapted from Budget Savvy Diva
Makes 3 servings

Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon onion flakes

  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
  1. Mix everything together and store in a jar. When you're ready to use it, mix 1 heaping tablespoon with 1 cup of sour cream, plain yogurt or a combination of sour cream and mayo. Use some buttermilk to thin it out if you want more of  a dressing consistency.

  3. Let the mixture sit in the fridge for several hours or overnight before you eat it.
  4. This makes about 3 heaping tablespoons of mix.

  2. Popping in to say hello from the CCC blog hop. Great minds must think alike since I also made Ranch seasoning. Only difference is you took it all the way to dip whereas I kind of cheated because I had no dip or dressing-making materials in my house!

    Love the retro pictures of your daughter. Just beautiful.
