Buttermilk Dressing (mix)Shrimp Salad- Mo's Style (a good repeat)

I have talked about Mo's before when I posted my Clam Chowder recipe. It is a place in Newport Oregon that "Gourmet Guy" and I have loved for years and years. In fact it is past time to go there again. Newport is a place we like to go to get away from everyday... there are Mo's in other parts of Oregon but this one, the orginal, is our favorite. Of course the Clam Chowder is the best ever but they have other menu items that we love as well. Because it is on the coast the seafood is fresh and tasty. They make a Shrimp Salad that is very enjoyable with a bowl of chowder and garlic toast. The key is the ranch dressing that they make is simply the best. We were told that they were going to market it but we haven't seen it yet. Here is our version! So simple yet so good.

Green cabbage, cut into small pieces

Fresh salad shrimp, cooked and clean

Ranch Dressing, (Mo's would be the best of course but here is a mix recipe that we like with it.)

Ranch Dressing

1/2 c. buttermilk powder
1/4 t. garlic powder
1 t. onion powder
1 t. dried minced onion
1 t. MSG
1 t. salt
1 T. dried parsley
1/4 t. ground pepper
2 c. mayonnaise
1 c. water

This is a great mix, I have often made it and given as gifts. I have given each of my married daughters a combination of my mixes as a gift to start them off when they are setting up as Newlyweds. One of my friends asked for my Dill Dip mix every year for Christmas.
