This recipe is inspired by Bill's Blue Cheese Dressing at allrecipes.com. The main differences are minor variations in the amounts of ingredients, as well as a difference the preparation method. I suspect that Bill's dressing tastes pretty good; mine does!

Suggested Equipment:

  • Immersion or other type of blender
  • Common kitchen tools and measures
  • Container suitable for storing and dispensing finished dressing

Ingredients:

1 cup Mayonnaise, sugar-free
1 cup Sour cream, unsweetened
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
½ tsp Mustard, dry, ground
½ tsp Garlic, dry, granulated
½ tsp Salt, common
½ tsp Black pepper, dry, ground
5 oz Blue cheese, crumbled

Directions:

When I make this, I use a stick (immersion) blender and an appropriately-sized glass jar. Bill's original recipe calls for using a wire whisk. I am not prepared emotionally for that kind of labor.

  1. Blend all ingredients except the blue cheese to a smooth consistency.

  2. Mix in the crumbled blue cheese. if you like your dressing lumpy with blue cheese chunks, just stir it in; but if you want your dressing smoother, pulse the blender until it reaches the consistency you desire.

  3. Refrigerate at least 1 day, maybe two, to let the flavors "meld"; then use it like any store-bought dressing

Makes about 2½ cups - supposedly 10 servings 🤣. As with any of my dressing recipes, this one contains no preservatives. Keep it refrigerated, and use it up before it has a chance to spoil!
