I love cooking from scratch, but sometimes I like to use a couple pre-made items, combine them and come up with something. It’s a nice break from always making things from scratch.
This ranch is so easy to make and uses only 2 ingredients. It is so good! I love the spicy ranch at Outback Steakhouse, so I thought this would give me that same sort of feel on my salad…and yep, it does (without the cost and fuss of going out). This Spicy Ranch is also quite tasty on a taco salad.
Hubbyman thought it would be fun to add this seasoning to a Cesar dressing to get a spicy Cesar (I forget which restaurant does that).
Spicy Ranch Dressing
1/2 cup bottled Ranch Dressing
1 tbl Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle Seasoning
Combine and mix well in a small bowl. Use as a dip or over salad! (Note: it gets spicier as it sits in the fridge.)

January 24, 2011 at 11:19 pmI did not know that there was a Chipotle flavored Mrs. Dash! We love adding chipotle to a lot of our dishes….I’ll be adding that AND a bottle of ranch dressing to my shopping list!
Thanks so much for sharing!

January 21, 2011 at 9:56 amThis dressing sounds so delicious with that chipotle added in. I bet this would be fantastic with a salad that has bacon in it.
