Smoked Chili Ranch Dip
This is one of those recipes that came about by me trying to figure out how to make buffalo wings good after I realized I was out of buffalo sauce (Whoops!) So, I raided by pantry and found:
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 TBL onion powder
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika (The smokier the better so spend the extra couple bucks and upgrade from the McCormick on this one — for the record, McCormick spices are generally fine if you replace them every six months like you’re supposed to do with any dried spice)
- 1 TBL chili powder
Thoroughly combine, then enjoy on anything that you’d put boring old ranch on. Some of my faves include:
- Grilled Buffalo Wings
- Fried Green Tomatoes
- Crudite (Yup, this is nothing more than a fancy name for a raw vegetable platter)
