21 Day Fix Recipe – Homemade Ranch Dressing

Hello everyone!!

I was just putting together dinner for tonight.  A big salad with lots of awesome veg and some lean  protein.  Then I came to the dressing part and was stopped cold in my tracks.  

My salad was very generic.  Romaine, cucumbers, tortilla strips, grated cheese and grilled tofu veggie tenders.  Not quite a taco salad that I could use Salsa for the dressing, yet not themed enough that I could use one of the signature dressings from the 21 Day Fix eating plan.  To me chicken or in my case "chicken" and vinaigrette just doesn’t mix well.  I was stuck. I am a to-the-bone ranch dressing girl. 

So, I’m sure you can imagine what all of this means, can’t you?   Yep.  I needed to get into the kitchen and make something to pacify my now need for 21 Day Fix ranch dressing.   Here’s what I have come up with.  It’s not exactly the same, but it was quite good, and a nice addition to our arsenal while on the FIX.

I hope you guys like this one!  :)

  2. Can you taste the yogurt? I'm not a fan of Greek Yogurt.
