Rated 5 out of 5 by from These are so yummy & addictive. I sometimes use butter flavored popcorn oil instead of the vegetable oil for added flavor.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Addictive Snack These are wonderful little snack crackers. I found that putting the crackers into a large mixing bowl and pouring the Ranch and oil mixture over the crackers and tossing by hand in several additions instead of pouring all into a bag the best way to evenly add the Ranch mix. Yes there is more clean up but the flavor gets distributed so well using this technique. Yummy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great on Popcorn as well ! I love the Hidden Valley Ranch Dip packets !! It's my favorite dip to make for chips, veggies, etc. But it makes excellent popcorn seasoning as well as this cracker recipe. My only suggestion is get a Misto oil mister. You'll use less oil instead of pouring oil on you'll lightly mist and can use other oils like Olive Oil.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Family favorite I normally make this reciped at thanksgiving, christmas and new years. This year due to lack of time i wasn't able to make it and my daughters brother-in-law was extremely disappointed so i had to promise to make it for new years. I guess i had better plan better next year so as not to disappoint anyone.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Addictive These are so easy to make. That's the upside, sort of. The downside? If you're not careful, you'll end up eating the whole batch by yourself.
