Ingredients for Blue Cheese Dressing Recipe
- Mayonnaise and sour cream: I like to use full fat mayo and sour cream for a rich and creamy flavor, but you can use low fat if you prefer.
- Milk: A little milk helps to thin the dressing so that it’ pourable. I used 2%.
- White wine vinegar: A little acid is needed to help balance out the creaminess. Apple cider vinegar or some fresh lemon juice will also work well.
- Blue cheese: Use your favorite blue cheese.
- Seasonings: Garlic powder, salt, pepper and chives.
