Blue Cheese Dressing
This blue cheese dressing is creamy, tangy, thick, chunky and ah-mazing! It can be whipped up in less than 5 minutes. Really, it’s that easy. Once you try this dressing you will never purchase the pre-made stuff again. I promise.
No special equipment required. In a medium bowl add 1/2 the cheese crumbles and the buttermilk. Mash with the tines of a fork until it resembles large cottage cheese curds.
Stir in the remaining ingredients, pour into your container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. This dressing needs time for the flavors to combine. If it’s too thick for your liking add some milk to thin it out. I prefer it thick.
That’s it. I told you, just 5 minutes to prepare. This dressing is perfect as a vegetable dipping, wing dipping, salad and loads more.

April 11, 2016My husband is really going to LOVE this! It’s his favorite dressing, but I have never made it and he is not a fan of the bottled variety so he only gets to enjoy it at a good restaurant that makes it.

April 19, 2016Love bleu cheese dressing! And this one is perfect. I really have to watch for gluten in dressings, and making my own is the best way to make sure there isn’t any. I love it tangy! We eat wedge salads, wings, and use it for a veggie dip! You’ve made my day!

April 19, 2016Thanks, Nikki! I hope you make it! 🙂
