The original Ranch Dressing was created at the Hidden Valley Ranch, California in the 1950’s. It is Gluten Free if you need a prepared dressing.
Homemade Ranch Dressing tastes nothing like the prepared. It’s worth the effort. Use herbs and spices, as much or as little as you want. It won’t really change the carb count.
