Salad dressing. It’s a pretty common staple in my house and probably in yours, too.

But each of us likes something a little bit different. And there is plenty to choose from at the grocery store. Different brands, flavors, amounts and more. Things have certainly changed from when I was a child!

But something that hasn’t changed? Food always tastes better when mom makes it. And the same holds true for buttermilk ranch dressing.

For Buttermilk Ranch Dressing, you will need…buttermilk ranch dressing

2 tsp. lemon juice

This dressing is quick and simple to make. It’s fresh. Full of flavor. And not as overwhelming as all of the choices at the grocery store.

Wash, dry and finely chop the parsley, chives and dill weed. I gave you measurements for this, but they are estimates. Feel free to add a little more or less if you want.

Mix all of the ingredients in with the buttermilk mixture and chill in a glass jar. You will want to let the flavors come together for about 30 minutes before serving. It will stay good for a week or so refrigerated.
