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.
