Reviews from the Original Source
I made this today and am waiting until tomorrow for the flavors to set up. I had a taste before putting it in the fridge and was very happy with the results. I made a couple of minor changes… Most of my family dislike raw tomatoes. I left them out and subbed in 1/2 cup of frozen peas cooked for half the time recommended and 1/4 cup of red bell pepper cut into 1/3” squares.
As a side note, I made the ‘mistake’ of purchasing Hidden Valley Ranch’s ‘Restaurant-Style Dressing packets’. They are only .4 oz each but made the same amount of dressing as the ‘Original’ 1 oz packets.
