I made this lactose free with half and half lactose free cream and vegan mayonnaise. Its soo good. Will definitely be making it again.

Yummy! I reduced this to 1/4 of a cup, so a very small amount, though I will probably have enough for a couple more salads! SW tasty, I think this would be great on a taco salad! Also for dipping quesadilla...the possibilities are endless, for me! Thanks for sharing a great recipe, adumas9.

Made this as part of my contribution when we had a steak-grilling with a neighbor! I did, however, change some of the amounts a bit, like using just 3/4 teaspoon of the chili powder & the same abount for the smpked paprika! I also reduced the cumin to slightly less than 1/2 teaspoon! Worked for me, & from the kind words about the dressing from the others, I guess it worked for them, too! [Made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in this fall's round of Pick A Chef]

Very nice! I had never had smoked paprika before but sweet paprika is one of my favorite spices so I had to try this. I cut the recipe by 1/8 and even though there was therefore only 1/8 tsp paprika, it really added a lot of smokiness. This was easy and quick to throw together so I'm sure I'll make it again when I have buttermilk to use up, as I did today. Thanks for sharing!
