This is a great recipe if you don't have a lot of time. The first time I made it, it was a little too thin...so I cut back the buttermilk to 1/2 C the next time and it was fine. I often make this as a dip using sour cream or even cream cheese instead of mayo - keep the 1/2 C buttermilk for that extra tang. BTW...Hellman's west of the Rockies is labeled Best Foods.

I love this recipe. I've made it twice as written and although I find it a bit thin, I also feel this is why it goes well on anything from romaine to arugula, spinach and mixed greens. I use Hellmann's mayo and don't find it to taste like mayo. I always double the recipe. Tastes great when made but better if it sits for a few hours.

I can't believe how good this is. I used basil instead of parsley and added an 1/4 tsp red pepper flake. I didn't have buttermilk so I used regular milk so it was thin. The flavor was well yeah-hidden valley who. I'm going to make it with heavy sipping cream next..you'll never buy packet again..

Very good and easy to make. I followed the recipe exactly as written and we all loved it. It was so fresh tasting. Made for Spring PAC 2011.
