New Fav Ranch Dressing: Healthy and DELICIOUS!

Garden Salad with Bolthouse Farms Classic Ranch Yogurt Dressing



I have a new favorite salad dressing!!!  I'm thrilled because as a lover of Ranch I have spent lots of time avoiding the traditional stuff (loaded with fat and a super long junk filled ingredient list) and trying organic or all natural versions that never seem to taste as good.  But that all changed today - eureka!   AND this one is lower in calories, has no artificial flavors or colors or preservatives, yes.  

This is all true and its DELICIOUS - creamy and zesty and only 45 Calories for a 2 Tbsp serving, with only 3 grams of fat!!  Other brands can be as much as 170 Calories and 19 grams of fat for the same amount.  Crazy, right?!  So, sorry for all the exclamation points, but yes, I'm actually this excited about it :)  

Bolthouse Farms Classic Ranch.  How do they do it?  Simple:  Yogurt.  Put all your preconceived notions of what Yogurt Dressings are like aside, and spend the $3.50 for a bottle.  Nope it's not in the regular "Dressing" aisle, it is in the fridge case, where all fresh creamy things belong.  After a couple tough days this week I deserve this win :)  And am thrilled to share this wonderful good news.
