To view my ENTIRE Cafe Rio / Costa Vida Salad copycat recipe, click HERE.
1 packet TRADITIONAL Hidden Valley Ranch mix (not BUTTERMILK)
1 c. mayonnaise
1 c. buttermilk
2 tomatillos, remove husk, diced
1/2 bunch of fresh cilantro
1 clove garlic
juice of 1 lime
1 jalepeno (we like it SPICY so we kept the seeds in it, if you like it mild, just remove the seeds)
Mix all ingredients together in the blender. That's it!

I am so glad that this isn't a privage blog. I love this salad, and actually like your rice better than mine. The lime really gives it a nice kick. Thank you for sharing your recipes.
The real stuff has cayenne not jalapeno
I always have trouble with this being too runny. Any suggestions?
I would maybe suggest using a little less buttermilk. If you let the ranch sit overnight it should thicken up a little too.
It also helps to thicken it if you add a little flour to it. Not alot just a little. You can't taste the difference but it does give it more of a creamy texture.
thanks so much for the cafe rio recipes!!
