Can I say that I love you for posting this?? I have been missing these things since they discontinued them. I ate them non-stop while I was pregnant with my first son and I was crushed when they went missing from the menu. This was very close to what I remember (probably because I've been using bottled ranch dressing) and I cannot stop eating them again! I made them to eat for lunch and I have eaten them the past 2 days and I'm seriously considering eating another one tomorrow. Next round I will make the ranch in the recipe but they are great either way. Thank you so much!
