Made a 1/4 batch as we cannot buy Ranch Dressing Mix in the supermarkets in Australia so I could make Shelby Jo recipe #317230 for Potluck Tag. Thank you so much wildheart.

tried this recipe and it was o.k. but would omit the sugar completely next time.

I actually made this recipe and put it on a baked potato, along with a little olive oil. I will use it for salads too :) I was happy with the flavor, even though I didn't let it sit (like I should have) to develop the spice flavors. After reading the reviews, I did make a couple of adjustments based on personal preference and the fact that I didn't have any minced dry onions. With the adjustments (tweaks) that I made, I counted about 8 tablespoons of ranch mix. That works well for me. Next time, I might buy and use some minced dry onion, but certainly will not add a cup of dried onions. Maybe 2 or 3 tablespoons. I will list the tweaks in the tweak area. I was very happy with the taste of the Ranch Dressing. I didn't think it was too salty, but the salt mixtures I did use would make the amount of salt less than 1 teaspoon. The saltiness of the potato tasted just right because I didn't use any added salt knowing that there was salt in the dressing. It should be just right for salads. The dressing has a very good appearance too :)

This made a wonderful french onion dip! I didn't really think it was much like ranch dressing, but it still tasted very good :) I did have to add a bit more salt to mine. It's great to be able to make your own dip like this so you can control fat/calories/sodium ect!

I have not tried this to make dip yet, but the dressing turned out very much to my liking. This also goes very nicely on green beans. Add a teaspoon or 2 to some buttered green beans, and Out-Of-This-World! Thanks for the keeper.
