Cilantro Lime Ranch Dressing

This Cilantro Lime Ranch Dressing is creamy, tangy, and packed with herbs. The combination of classic ranch with zesty lime and fresh cilantro gives a Tex Mex flair to this dressing. Use it on your favorite salads, for dipping fresh veggies, or for serving alongside some Mexican grilled chicken. (Yields approximately 1 1/2 cup of dressing, or 12- 2 tablespoons servings)
