Is it okay to use a little bit of Ranch dressing for deviled eggs if I don't have enough mayo?

[Lil Missy]

I'm preparing this for a party tomorrow night, but don't have quite enough mayo. A couple squirts of Ranch dressing would fluff it up, but would it ruin the taste?

5. That sounds like a good idea

So I don't see why not. I am a food recipe junkie and I am sure I have read of using ranch dressing in deviled egg recipes-- I mean there are hundreds, thousands of recipes using ranch dressing- Go for it and let us know how it works out!!

6. Use extra mustard if you do that. The ranch dressing will make them too sweet.

Most ranch dressing is heavy in HFCS and frankly way too sweet even for salad. A nice stiff crushed-seed brown mustard would definitely help to offset that. Just for grins, try putting some Old Bay on a couple instead of paprika.

you can do whatever you want with the ranch dressing.
