Homemade Ranch

De-LISH!  Really! I have never made my own ranch before.  I know that my mom does and I LOVE it.  This one is good!  It is from Smells Like Home.   It is a simple recipe and really yummy.  Go try it out!  Enjoy!

Homemade Ranch
3/4 cup mayonnaise
3/4 cup sour cream
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1/4 to 1 cup buttermilk (I didn't have any, so I did "homemade" buttermilk...milk and lemon juice)
1 small bunch of chives or 2 scallions, roughly chopped
Small handful of parsley
1 clove garlic
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Place all ingredients with 1/4 cup of buttermilk in a blender and blend for 10 seconds.

Check consistency and blend in additional buttermilk if desired. Less buttermilk for dipping or pizza “sauce”, more for dressing. Store in an air-tight jar in the fridge.  Leftovers will keep 2-3 weeks.
