I bought a big thing of hidden valley ranch powder on a whim and I'm looking for suggestions

I mix it with plain greek yoghurt to create ranch dip.

[-] Broken_Monitor@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Or sour cream. Then slam that on everything. But mostly potatoes. And dip all other veggies in it.

My SO taught me about this, and it became the perfect way to ween me off of my unhealthy ranch addiction. Making my own was so much healthier than whatever they put in ranch "sauce"

[-] LadyMeow@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 months ago

Yeeeessss! Thats why i suggested it, guilt free ranch? Yum!

[-] Drunemeton@lemmy.world 25 points 3 months ago

Nice TRY Hidden Vally Ranch marketing intern!

You’ll have to pry my top secret recipe for HVR jello from my cold dead fingers…

[-] camr_on@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I'm en route to your house to try ~~the worst sounding recipe I've ever read~~

Edit: I've thought about it for 2 minutes and now I actually just want to try that

[-] Professorozone@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Oh, at first I thought you were suggesting to try it on an intern and I thought what a great idea. If you can get an intern to cooperate, it'd be like the new jello shots. For a brief moment you were a genius, but sadly, not any more.

Mix it into ground beef for some burger patties. The taste comes through a bit, which is great, but the real perk is for some reason it makes it ridiculously juicy.

[-] transientpunk@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

Probably because the powder absorbs the fat, thereby retaining moisture

[-] itsathursday@lemmy.world 14 points 3 months ago

Battered deep fried pickles

[-] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

Popcorn. Tortilla chips. And I want to say Triscuits, but I have no experience with that. Or the chips.

[-] sxt@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

Directly onto pizza. The end

Some of my favorite popcorn seasoning:

  • Taco seasoning + powdered cheese
    • both individually and combined
  • garam masala
  • curry powder
  • nutritional yeast
[-] pyldriver@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

I have tried none of these one popcorn, and have never had nutritional yeast

[-] KittenBiscuits@lemm.ee 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Bread sticks. Brush with melted butter. Dust with ranch powder.

Bacon. Dust immediately after it finishes cooking. Eat as is or do things with the bacon (burgers, sandwiches, pizza)

French fries. (Edit: call them 'franch fries'!)

Sautéed mushrooms, or green beans.

I feel like you could start a series of posts: "[food item], 10/10 with ranch"

[-] savvywolf@pawb.social 8 points 3 months ago

Depends. Are you single? Do you want to be?

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Put it in fried chicken dredge. Or just on chicken that will be baked. Shit's super good on those.

Add it to sour cream and just have ranch dressing chip dip.

[-] Gordon@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Similarly, ranch powdered baked pork chops are super delicious. Get the thin sliced ones if you can find them

[-] Cptmurph616@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago

Mix it in a jar of pickles. Let sit for 24 hours. Enjoy.

Snort a line of ranch seasoning off a tit

[-] ingalls@lemmy.today 6 points 3 months ago

Chex mix. Add a little oil and spread it out on a baking sheet. Toss in the oven for a little bit to really get it in there.

[-] KittenBiscuits@lemm.ee 4 points 3 months ago

Holyyy shit. You're a goddamn genius.

[-] sgibson5150@slrpnk.net 4 points 3 months ago

Ranch is just unreasonably good. I just had some ranch

food referencedressing with chicken nuggies and crystal hot sauce
for dinner and it was so good.

[-] z00s@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Put ranch on some ranch and make ranch ^ranch

[-] TheKracken@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Coat some raw chicken wings with it then air fry the suckers. Makes an amazing wing.

[-] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Use it as a salt replacement. I’m pretty sure it contains MSG.

[-] WoahWoah@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

If you have stale bread, throw it in the freezer until you've got a bunch, then chop it up, toss it in melted butter and hidden valley ranch powder, and then bake them. World-class croutons.

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

Chicken breasts. Rub the powder into the meat then fry them in a skillet with oil and/or butter.

[-] Electricarrot@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Make some Alabama firecrackers! The recipes for them look pretty strange where you are just drowning saltines in seasoning and oil but it really good

[-] Nomecks@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago

Twist pasta with some fake crab and mayo.

[-] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

mix it into your eye shadow

[-] ohlaph@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

French fries, pizza, tat or tots, a window, and a burger.

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago

Put it in some cornflakes and milk

[-] Professorozone@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Tortilla chips?

[-] Twinklebreeze@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Pretzels. With some lemon pepper and a little cayenne. 🤌

Egg sandwich, along with mayo

[-] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

I think sushi with ranch is amazing.
