Ranch-style Dressing

This recipe is from 7 Secrets Cookbook, pg. 57.

1 cup mayonnaise of choice
1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
¼ cup water
1 rounded tablespoon Ranch-style Dressing Mix

Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl and serve with tossed salad.

Ranch-Style Dressing Mix
1/4 cup onion powder
1 tablespoon celery salt or Vege-Sal
2 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1 tablespoon dill weed
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons sweet basil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon sugar [which I never use]

Mix together and store in an airtight container.

I use about a teaspoon of dressing mix to 1/2 cup of mayonnaise if I want a smaller amount of dressing for just the two of us.

One year I mixed up a batch of the mix and gave it as a Christmas gift to a family who loves Ranch Dressing.  I have even given them a refill on their dressing mix.
