I Can't Believe It's Not Ranch-Low Fat Ranch Dressing

Submitted by BakingGuru

"My family and I are trying to be more health conscious these days and eat meals with less fat. I wanted to create a Ranch dressing that was healthy but still had the awesome Ranch taste that we all love. When I made this for the first time I served it on salad and didn't tell my DH and kids. I told them at the end that it was a homemade lowfat Ranch and they couldnt' believe it. This dressing has so little to no fat you won't have any guilt eating it."

This recipe is too yogurty and it overpowers the ranch seasoning (i used high quality yogurt and sour cream btw). The flavors conflict. This ruined my chef salad. :( It's probably much better on a baked potato, but definitely don't put it on a salad.

Well I thought this was very good and I am excited to think I can finally eat a good tasting Ranch Dressing without the worry of calories and fat. This will be one I use often. Thanks for sharing!

This was a great light dressing. I actually used lemon light and fit yogurt that is about 80 calories a cup and skipped on the sour cream and this came out as a great dressing. Much more thick than the normal kind of dressing (low cal and not) too, and the lemon gave it a great kick!

Easy and delicious! I used over a baked potato. I halved the recipe. Thanks! I'm glad I picked you for the Pick a Chef game!
