MIXED-BEAN CRUDITE WITH CUCUMBER RANCH DRESSING

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a vigorous boil. Add about a teaspoon of salt.
• Snap off the ends of all the beans, leaving the tail on if desired
• Cook beans and peas in separate batches, starting with the snow peas and ending with the haricots verts, just until color is brightened and they are crisp-tender. They should bend without snapping but not be at all limp, 30 to 60 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and immediately plunge into an ice-water bath.
• Once beans have cooled completely, drain in a colander, shaking to remove as much excess water as possible. Spread them on a clean kitchen towel and gently pat away remaining moisture. Loosely wrap vegetables in the towel and chill for up to 2 hours.
• To make dressing: Grate cucumber on the large holes of a box grater.

HOMEMADE CUCUMBER RANCH DRESSING MIX

Steps:

• 1. Put all ingredients in food processor and process until blended and powdered. This comes out a bit thinner because of the lack of preservatives and fillers. I mix it with 3/4 cp mayo or sour cream to 1/4 cup milk and 3 tablespoons of the mix.
• 2. Try more or less to your liking! NOTE- you may add 1/4 tspn to this dressing of xanthan gum to thicken it as the recipes is thin. Instead of using xanthan gum I just use a little more mayo and less milk! I dont care for using additives
• 3. If you don't have dehydrated cucumber you can finely dice fresh cucumber (its better that way!)
