BEST Homemade Ranch Dressing!

Recipe adapted from Pioneer Woman 

Ok this has got to. be the most delicious freshest, easiest homemade ranch dressing, you will never go back to the powdered ranch dressing dips again! Here's here recipe and my easy modification below you don't have to use all those ingredients. TIP: One of my favorite culinary stores, Surfas Culver City has instant sweet cream powdered buttermilk, it's not one of those ingredients I always have on hand so I love to have this instant powder version you just add with water and VOILA instant buttemilk! 

Also I used Trader Joe's Mushroom Blend Umami Seasoning, this thing is the BOMB! I didn't have worcestershire sauce so I just used a shake of this for some umami flavor. 

See my recipe below and have fun, it's super easy and delicious!

1 clove (to 2 Cloves) Garlic

Salt To Taste

1/4 c. Italian Flat-leaf Parsley
