HOMEMADE BLUE CHEESE DRESSING (BETTER THAN STORE-BOUGHT)



Homemade Blue Cheese Dressing (Better Than Store-Bought) image

This easy homemade blue cheese dressing is extra creamy and perfect for tossing with salad or used as a dipping sauce. Depending on what you plan to use the blue cheese dressing for, you might consider adding a little milk or water. Without it, the dressing is thick, which makes it perfect for dipping. If you want it to be pourable like a salad dressing, a splash of milk or water is the key.
