Easy Homemade Blue Cheese Dressing, Straight From the Farm

Real ingredients. No fillers.

If you’ve ever flipped over a bottle of store-bought blue cheese dressing and wondered why there are so many ingredients, this recipe is for you.

At Lilly Den Farm, we believe the best food comes from keeping things simple. Real ingredients. No fillers. No preservatives. Just rich, bold flavor you can taste.

This homemade blue cheese dressing comes together in minutes and tastes better than anything you’ll find on a shelf. Once you make it, you’ll never go back.

Why Homemade Is Better

Most store-bought dressings rely on stabilizers, gums, added sugars, and artificial flavors to extend shelf life. When you make it yourself, you control the quality — and the flavor.

Using good quality blue cheese and real dairy makes all the difference. The result is creamy, tangy, and packed with that unmistakable blue cheese bite.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup good quality blue cheese
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • ½ to 1 cup buttermilk (depending on desired thickness)

Instructions:

  1. Add all ingredients to a jar, bowl, or blender-safe container.
  2. Use an immersion blender to blend until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add more buttermilk if needed to reach your preferred consistency.
  4. Taste and adjust seasoning if desired.

That’s it — no complicated steps, no special equipment, and no wasted time.

How We Use It

This dressing is incredibly versatile. We love it:

  • Drizzled over fresh salads
  • Tossed with roasted vegetables
  • Paired with wings or burgers
  • As a dip for raw veggies
  • And yes — it’s good enough to eat straight off the spoon.
