Thank you for posting your experiment. I have been looking for an MSG-free alternative to Cool Ranch chips, but unfortunately, Hidden Valley is still FULL of MSG. So, I am forwarding the recipe I use for Ranch dressing – au naturale. I am going to try my ranch with your additions above and it should be PERFECT. (to make this for ranch dressing: 1/2 cup mayo, 1/2 cup buttermilk, 1 TBSP of ranch mix – WONDERFUL MSG-free!) In food processor: 15 saltine crackers, 2 cups dry parsley flakes, 1/2 minced dried onion, 2 TBSP dry dill weed, 1/4 cup onion salt, 1/4 cup garlic salt, 1/4 cup onion powder, 1/4 cup garlic powder. Pulse til fine and store in airtight container in cool dry place. **you can also cut the dry ingredients in half if this is too much for you to use within 6 months** Hope this helps others with MSG issues.

I JUST blogged about you! I hope that’s alright. I searched for how to make Cooler Ranch Doritos at home and yours was the ONLY recipe I found! I’m so excited to try it.

Scrumptious blogging, Nick.

My all-time favorite reverse-engineered junk food item has to be the Taco Bell Crunch Wrap Supreme. (After college, I lived for three years in South Dakota, 100 miles from the nearest Taco Bell, so these became most essential.) For those who aren’t familiar, it’s basically just a tostada wrapped up in a tortilla and sealed on a sandwich press; I used my George Foreman Grill.

These look and sound amazing–I will definitely be trying them. I recently discovered how easy it is to make chips out of corn tortillas and how delicious they are–better than store bought. And how fun is it to play with the seasonings?
