      Thank you Mirj! I'm so glad you posted this "legal" recipe! I too love Ranch dressing. I've seen other recipes with a million ingredients, so this was a welcome suprise! In my humble opinion, this tastes better when you chill it overnight. The flavors have a chance to mingle and it firms up nicely! Love this stuff on raw broccoli, mushrooms, and celery.

      This is the perfect Ranch flavor, without the "yucky stuff." My DH complained that it was too "mayonnaisy," and I felt it got a little *too* thick in the fridge, so next time I'll try 1 c. mayo & 1 c. sour cream, which might solve both issues.

      I agree with this being a great recipe for an Atkins diet. I am watching my cholesterol and carbs and this recipe fills the bill. Delicious!

      Mirj you have made my life a little more tasty. I love ranch, but most have MSG. I have a lot of sensitivities. This is awesome. I used it for the dressing dip for Carmen's Ranch Chicken #49410. We had stir fry veggies with your dressing. Thank you so much! Peggy

      This should be a #1 Atkins Diet recipe! I have been tired of eating salad with vinegrette and this is dressing is great and on my diet too! I made this dressing to go along with plain vegetable salad at a recent dairy meal and this was definately the hit of the meal. I have been eating the leftovers all week and just went out to buy more ingredients. This is also great used as a dip for veggies and I hope to make it next as a creamy cucumber salad. This dressing has really livened up my boring salads! It was so easy to make too.

      Great! I must watch the fats, so I made it with skim milk and lowfat sour cream, and it's still creamy and delicious. I too love this kind of dressing on my steamed vegetables. I believe it can also be made with natural low fat yogurt.

      This is a good basic Ranch recipe, but definitely needed more flavor. I doubled the dill and garlic powder, added in a bit of onion powder and paprika, a pinch of salt and pepper, and was much happier with the results.

      Wow, so easy and tastes much better than the bottled stuff! I usually have all the ingredients on hand, so it'll be easy to whip it up when I need a dressing. Thank you!

      I didn't even know what this was before it was called for in another recipe. I really liked it. My bf said it was great. I liked the creamy, tangy, garliciness of it, especially as I've never had premade before. I plan to make this for sandwiches. I put it in some tinned salmon and it was lovely!

      Mirj, pardon me for saying so, but I could not be MORE delighted that you had to resort to this to have Ranch in Israel! This is "lick the spoon" good! Due to dh's celiac disease, it has been really hard to find a really good ranch dressing, even in restaurants. We'll be taking this with us in a little container. LOL

      Way too strong on the mayo.

      I agree with other reviews that this is a good basic ranch recipe. I like a little more flavor, so I also added more garlic, onion powder, parsley and paprika. I did think it was a bit too lemony and slightly too mayo-y, but after tinkering with it a bit it tasted pretty good. Mine was not runny at all, something that I really like as most homemade ranch recipes just don't have that same consistency as storebought. Will continue to use this as a base and cut back on the lemon juice in the future, thanks for posting!

      This makes a great base for ranch dressing but I added some extras to make it to my tastes (to be fair though, I didn't let the original recipe sit long enough to know what it tastes like after the flavors melded). I added extra garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, salt, and parsley. It is soooo good (after sitting for an hour) I could eat it with a spoon.

      Although this recipe was good, it was a little lacking in flavor. So I added about 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp sugar, and a pinch of black pepper. This also toned down the strong mayo flavor. Part of my problem may have been that I used plain yogurt instead of the sour cream, since I was out. Will definitely try the recipe again with sour cream. It tasted good on wings and I'm sure it would be great on a tomato sandwich.

      This dressing is so good! My SIL asked me to bring the salad for Christmas dinner and I mixed up this dressing with items I had in my kitchen pantry. It was so good over the fresh greens and everyone was asking for the recipe. Thank you Mirj for another wonderful recipe!

      Cut the recipe by 4. Used 1/2 and 1/2 sour cream and mayo and no heavy cream. Had fresh dill which made it great. Also added some seasoned salt.
