I salad I made this morning, while taking my sweet time to get ready for work.  Lettuce, Tomatoes, Red Peppers, Grilled Chicken, Shredded cheese and lowfat Ranch dressing (Made with the little packets I brought home from the US).

Karin, what low-fat mayo do you use? I'm finding that the low fat stuff is just so... tangy? I'm not sure exactly what it is, but it's somehow not as neutral as full fat. But I have some Hidden Valley Ranch packets at home that I want to use. Maybe the seasoning in the packets will be strong enough to hide the taste that I don't like.... But I don't want to waste a packet testing it!  :P

DanielS, if youve ever had the kind of ranch thats not in a bottle on the supermarket shelf, you may find that its not the worst stuff ever invented ;) Its sooo good made from scratch.

I had a handful of skittles..:P

Im not sure where you might find it that way in the UK, but in the US some restaurants do make theirs in house.

I make mine by using hellmans (ie real mayo, not miracle whip, salad dressing whatever you want to call it) with sour cream...depending on how you like it, if youre in the UK  Id maybe suggest getting creme fraiche, as the sour cream seems a bit thin here. Tastes the same, just thinner for some reason. I also add garlic powder, onion powder, salt and dried or fresh parsley. You can obviously tweak it to your own tastes, such as peppercorn etc. I use a bit more sour cream than mayo usually, I dont have exact measurements unfortunately, I just mix and match until it tastes the way I want..but basically you dont want to have too strong of a sour cream or mayo taste, youd want it somewhat balanced. IMO ;)

Its really simple, and once its done you just refrigerate for at least an hour to let all the flavors blend. Good stuff :) I find that a lot of times the ranch from the supermarket is too tangy, sometimes it has a weird texture etc.
