In a separate bowl, place mayo and ranch mix (if using). Stir until well blended. Skip this step if just using plain mayo.

Notes
There are lots of ways to adjust this to suit your own taste by adding or leaving out ingredients. Corn or pinto beans (drained) can be added as can diced pickles or black olives or grated cheddar. I prefer the more plain one but with all that lovely mayonnaise there isn't much that can mess it up.
