We only use Thousand Island Dressing on Rueben Sandwiches. Other than that, it sits in the fridge until it expires and I throw it out. So I created a recipe that uses it.
Thousand Island Veggie Dip
1/2 c. Thousand Island Dressing
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 tsp granulated garlic and 1/2 tsp onion powder (guessing on amounts, I do to taste)
4 shakes of Tabasco (again, to taste)

I will be trying the Ranch Dressing recipe. I may just mix up the dry ingredients ( with powdered buttermilk) and store in a container in the spice cabinet. Then I can mix up smaller amounts as needed.
I cheat when I make ranch dressing, SAMs Club has the dry seasoning in a jar. I make it with 50/50 mayo and sour cream (I prefer Miracle Whip but to get DH to eat it I must use Mayo, lol).
For grilled chicken sandwiches, I don't add any milk so it stays thick and then add garlic and fresh grated parmesan cheese. Toasted bun, grilled chicken breast, romaine lettuce, a slice of tomato and parmesan ranch sauce. That is heaven on a bun.

When y'all say "real mayo" is that homemade or just not miracle whip?
There are imitation mayonnaise products out there and miracle whip is one of them...Can you tell that I do not like miracle whip?

Real Mayonnaise v. Fake Mayo: Some Historical Background on Hellman's v. Just Mayo
November 19, 2014 in Flavor, Material Culture, Technology
Line your lairs with slices of white bread: the great mayonnaise wars have begun!
You may have heard the news that Hellman's, a subsidiary of Unilever, is suing Hampton Creek over a rival product, Just Mayo. Their claim? Just Mayo is a phony trying to pass itself off as the real thing. As one of Unilever's VPs told Businessweek: "They're nonmayonnaise and are trying to play in the mayonnaise side."
At issue are FDA regulations that officially define what can legally call itself mayonnaise in this country. These regulations decree mayonnaise to be an emulsified semisolid food that must contain three things: vegetable oil, an acidifying ingredient (vinegar, lemon and/or lime juice), and egg yolks (or, technically, an egg-yolk-containing ingredient).
Hellman's: It tickles the menfolks!

Hellman's: It tickles the menfolks!
The regulations also specify a suite of optional ingredients that can be included in without mayonnaise sacrificing its legitimacy -- salt, MSG, crystallization inhibitors such as oxystearin, etc. -- but the egg yolks are the sticking point here.
My name is 'Mayonnaise,' emulsion of emulsions
Look upon my yolks, ye mighty, and despair!
Hampton Creek makes a vegan, entirely plant-based product. There's a joke that goes: "How do you know if someone is a vegan?" "Don't worry. They'll tell you."***
Hampton Creek is not that kind of vegan. Josh Tetrick, the company's CEO, told the Washington Post: "We don't market our product to tree-hugging liberals in San Francisco.... We built the company to try to really penetrate the places where better-for-you food hasn't gone before, and that means right in the condiment aisle of Walmart." It's evident that Just Mayo doesn't want to get pinned as some hippie "health food," a carob also-ran trying to compete with actual chocolate. It claims to be as delectable as the thing itself. It even features an egg-like ovoid on its label, for some reason.
The media, along with its celebrity chef auxiliary corps, has generally taken the side of the underdog here, chiding Unilever for bullying the start-up and generally acting like the soulless multinational corporation that it is. (There have also been some subsequent ironies -- Hellman's had to change the wording on their website to account for the fact that some of their products, including their olive oil mayonnaise, don't count as mayonnaise either under the FDA's regulations -- like Miracle Whip, another nonmayo, they are technically "dressings.")

It is my experience that whichever you grew up with, real mayonnaise or Miracle Whip, that is the one you like today. I grew up with Miracle Whip and greatly prefer its taste over mayonnaise. Whichever you prefer, enjoy it.There are imitation mayonnaise products out there and miracle whip is one of them...Can you tell that I do not like miracle whip?
I bet you are correct!
mayo - what I mean is Hellmans' Best Mayo from the store. I hate to admit it, but that stuff actually makes me gag a little.
I grew up with Miracle Whip, so I like Miracle Whip. DH grew up with Hellmans. We have both in the fridge. He eats a lot more Miracle Whip than he thinks he does. He has raved that my sister makes "The Best" deviled eggs ... until he found out the she uses Miracle whip. Now they are just OK.
I do like homemade mayo, made with our home grown eggs of course.
