Cafe Rio Creamy Tomatillo Salad Dressing

My husband has been making this since before we decided we liked Cafe Rio (we were anti for a while). This dressing is awesome. And such a nice use of the tomatillos we grow in the garden.

3 fresh tomatillos, cut into quarters
1 pkg. Buttermilk Ranch Salad Dressing powder mix
1 cup mayonnaise*
1/3 to 1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup fresh cilantro
2 cloves garlic
1/4 tsp. crushed cayenne pepper OR 1 jalapeno pepper

--Combone all ingredients in a blender and refrigerate at least one hour.

*For thicker dressing reduce mayonnaise to 1/2 cup and add 1/2 cup sour cream to mixture.
