    This was great! I did have to add 4 saltines to this & blend to thicken. ( I saw this trick with other hidden valley ranch clones). I used this on a salad for my husband who won't eat anything except hidden valley and believe me, he can tell when. He has extremely sensitive taste buds! Well, he didn't notice that this was different. This is definitely a keeper!

    Very good. I used homemade coconut oil mayo and omitted the msg.

    Thanks for the great recipe. You've probably saved me a ton of money. I'll be making my own dressing now. Yum!!! (I also excluded the MSG..simply because I didn't have any on hand.)

    This was pretty good. I didn't use the msg as I didn't have any. but I added in a pinch of cayenne and think I'll add a little dried dill weed to the next lot.
