Made with the signature ingredients like buttermilk, ketchup, hot sauce and chopped sweet pickles this rendition is a not only a dream for chopped veggies but works well as spread for sandwiches too. So, if you’re a fan of the dressing, double or triple it so you can enjoy it later in the week. Looking for a way to turn this salad into a satisfying lunch or light supper dish?
