Special Notes

This copycat Outback ranch dressing captures the tangy, herby flavor of the original. The combination of mayonnaise, sour cream, and buttermilk creates the perfect consistency. The key is to let the dressing chill for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This dressing is perfect for salads, vegetables, or as a dip. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. For extra flavor, you can add different herbs or spices.
