Heat oven at 400 degrees

Pull out a mixing bowl and let's do this!

Things to toss in your bowl:

Mix it all together! Toss it into a 1 ½ quart baking dish.

Ranch Salsa

One jar of Heb green chille tomatillo

low fat buttermilk ranch

1 package of spicy ranch

Start with a 1/4 cup of buttermilk and blend in with green salsa. Wisk in the ranch dressing. I kind of play with it until I like the taste.

Add some fresh cilantro and serve with your favorite chips!

Enjoy! BC
