Jalapeno Ranch Dressing or Dip

Total Time 5 minutes
Servings 6 servings

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup buttermilk
  • ½ cup light mayonnaise
  • 1-2 medium jalapeno peppers seeds and membranes removed
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 bunch cilantro
  • ½ medium lime juiced

Instructions

  • Add ¼ cup buttermilk, ½ cup light mayonnaise, 1-2 medium jalapeno peppers, 1 clove garlic, 1 bunch cilantro, and juice from ½ medium lime to a food processor or blender. Pulse for 30 seconds until well combined.
  • Store in a food-safe, airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within one week.

Notes

  1. Blend the mixture in short bursts so you can keep tabs on the texture without accidentally over-blending it. It's okay for some texture to remain, but you don't want any chunks of chiles or cilantro.
  2. For a spicier flavor, leave the seeds and membrane intact.
  3. To thin the consistency, add more milk. For a thick dip, add extra mayo.
