  1. My husband heard this and was sold. He made it immediately without waiting for a double boiler. Thank goodness for nonstick. I actually liked it and I didn't think I would. It is really rich. If you like ranch doritos, this is for you.
     
  2. I'm rating this on behalf of my three year-old daughter, who really enjoyed the combination of noodles, cheese, and her favorite, ranch dressing. I tasted it and thought it was way too much ranch, but then again I'm not the huge ranch lover that she is. ;) I have a feeling we'll be making "noodles and ranch dip", as she called it, many times when in need of a quick lunch for her. Thanks for sharing!
     
  3. It isn't bad, very rich, It tastes just like you would think it would cheesy and ranchy. I think next time I will stick to my ramen noodles and squeeze cheese though, its easier to get the cheese smooth and melted and I'm not sure I like all the ranch dressing with the noodles.

I'm a 73 year old male. I live in the desert in Southeast Wasington. Yes, Virginia, Southeast Washington is Desert, Cacti, Sage Brush, Wile E. Coyote, the whole nine yards.The Columbia River flows through the middle of it and is its saving grace. Some of the jobs. I've held are Well Driller, Aircraft Machanic, Handyman, Electrician,Merchant Seaman, And most recently Long haul Driver.My hobbies are cooking, Kite making, and Good movies (plus anything that strikes my fancy) My first cookbook was Fanny Farmer Original Boston Cooking School Cookbook and its still the first of all of my cookbooks that I go to. It has the best Biscuit recipe going and the only change I make to its Cornbread recipe is to add a half teaspoon of Cayenne to bring out the flavor of the cornmeal. I injured my knee and have had the last year off and what I've done is go quietly mad. I'm now semi retired and try to figure out plan 'E'. A, B, C, and D phased out so it's time to move on, where, the hell ever, that is.
