Low Fat Ranch Dressing (that actually tastes good!)

Did you know that high fat foods make your blood sugar stay higher, longer? Another good reason to skim them down!

I challenge myself to make the good foods we love a little more healthy by cutting out the fat and sugar and reworking the recipe to be just as delicious, just a skinny version. You truly can't tell the difference.

Basic Ranch Dressing or Dip:

1/2 of a 16 ounce container 1% low fat cottage cheese
1/2 of a 16 ounce container lowfat sour cream
1/4 cup skim milk
1 packet dry Ranch Dressing mix

Mix together all ingredients in a blender until smooth - to make the dressing thinner add skim milk to the consistency you like. To make the dip - leave the milk out. Perfect for dipping carrots and broccoli and other raw veggies!

This makes enough to last me a week or so - but if you have a large family or eat alot more you can use the two full cartons and 2 packets of ranch dressing mix.

It's easy and tastes great!
