Homemade Chipotle Ranch Dressing

Do you know what really gives you a GREAT taco salad?  Adding some Chipotle Ranch Dressing.  

Normally if I have a salad I will put some ranch dressing on it.  But, when you add some of this dressing on your taco salad, or any salad for that matter, it becomes AMAZING!  Love it! This recipe is super easy to make too.

I got this recipe and picture from Anna's Bananas:

 Chipotle Ranch Dressing
1 cup mayonnaise (I used Smart Balance… I guess that makes me feel healthier)*
1/2-1 cup milk
1-2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
Ranch dressing mix
Salt, to taste
Juice from one lime

*To make this even healthier, use Greek yogurt.
Put all of the ingredients in a blender or food processor, and let the magic happen. You can adjust the quantity of peppers for spiciness, and the salt/ranch dressing mix for taste. You can add more or less milk to adjust creaminess. This is perfect with a delicious taco salad!

MY NOTE:  You can also just put a bottle of ranch dressing and the peppers in your food processor and mix up that way.

Let me know your thoughts on this once you have tried it.
