Don't waste any more money on those packets! Whip up your own homemade ranch seasoning mix. It tastes so much better and it has less salt than the store-bought packets. Plus, it's cheaper and you know exactly what's in it.
I've really gotten into making my own seasoning mixes lately. I posted this homemade taco seasoning recipe last week and I have a couple more for you. Starting off with this homemade ranch seasoning mix. I like making my own because it tastes 1000x better when you do! You can actually taste the spices & flavor instead of that stale-generic-salty-packet taste.
These homemade mixes are easy to make, and cheap because they use common spices that you probably already have. I always buy my spices in bulk at Costco or Sam's Club. They last forever and I can make lots & lots of batches of homemade mixes. And my favorite part is that you know exactly what is in it. No more crazy named things that you can't even pronounce!
The only ingredient that you may not have is the powdered buttermilk. I found mine in the baking aisle. If you love all things ranch then you really need to make {the best} homemade ranch dressing ever. Mix up just a few ingredients in a bowl and stir together. That's it!
Try this homemade ranch seasoning mix and let me know what you think. You can use 2 tablespoons to replace a store packet called for in recipes.
