Homemade Ranch Dressing

I finally took the plunge an made Ranch dressing from scratch-sorta! I haven't mastered making my own mayo yet but this dressing is delicious.
Homemade Ranch Dressing

• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tsp lemon juice or 1  packet true lemon
• 1/8 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/8 tsp black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
• 1 tsp chopped fresh chives
• 1/4 tsp dry dill or 1 teaspoon chopped fresh
• 1/8 tsp garlic powder

In a medium bowl mix the buttermilk and mayonnaise until fully mixed. Add in the other ingredients and adjust for taste. Keeps for a week in the refrigerator. I put it in a plastic squeeze bottle for convenience.
