Obedience Salad - and Ranch Dip

Right now we are living in a small hotel room while we await, with eager anticipation, the completion of our new domicile - that makes setting up the food to look pretty enough to photograph rather difficult...  So...

Ranch Dressing/Dip

1 c Mayo (REAL mayo, not the fake stuff!)
1/2 c sour cream (for a thinner, dressing-type consistency, use buttermilk)
1/2 t each: dried Chives, dried parsley, and dried dillweed
1/4 t each: garlic powder, onion podwer

Mix ingredients.  The longer they are chilled before serving, the more the flavors meld.

Obedience Salad

This salad is phenominal!!  There is something with the sunflower seed/cheddar combo, and the pretzel/ranch combo that is just a dance of pleasure on the tastebuds!

I do not really specify amounts for salads, generally.  The more salad you want to make, add more lettuce.  The flavors will work together in almost any amounts...

Romaine lettuce
Extra sharp cheddar cheese (shredded or VERY small cubes)
craisins
sunflower seeds
protein (I usually use chicken breast)
Ranch dressing
Combine ingredients and eat.

If you are NOT eating gluten free- get pretzels - the thicker stick/log ones, and break them apart for croutons.  Trust me - it makes the salad.....   I REALLY need to find a gluten free equivalent.
