1/2 bunch cilantro
1 can green chilis
3/4 tsp. salt
1 Tb. butter
1/2 onion

Creamy Cilantro Ranch Dressing

This is a apparently the copycat version of Cafe Rio's totamtillo ranch. Although it looks slightly different to me, it tastes delicious, so..... 

1 buttermilk ranch dry dressing pkg, prepared according to directions
2 tomatillos
1/2 bunch cilantro
1 clove garlic
juice of 1 lime
1 jalapeno (its pretty spicy with no seeds at all, but add some if you want extra hot)
Blend all together in food processor or blender, store in fridge.

Serve with Shredded Chicken or Shredded Pork to make a delicious meal!
