\"buttermilk-ranch-dressing\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was a very fresh dressing for a mixed salad with lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, capers, stuffed olives and pickled jalapeno which we got from Epicurious<\/a>. Instead of buttermilk, we used Activa Light. We didn\u2019t have sour cream this time so it was a bit too liquid. Otherwise it made a good salad dressing which went very well in the salad with our Nando\u2019s Chicken<\/a> meal.<\/em><\/p>\n

INGREDIENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n

3\/4 cup well-shaken low-fat (1 1\/2%) buttermilk
2 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
2 tablespoons nonfat sour cream
1 tablespoon packed fresh basil leaves, minced
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1 garlic clove, minced
1\/2 teaspoon sugar<\/p>\n

DIRECTIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a blender or food processor blend all ingredients and salt and pepper to taste until smooth. Dressing keeps, covered and chilled, 1 week. Serve dressing with soft lettuce, shellfish salad, or salmon salad.<\/p>\n
