De-Lightful Ranch Dip or Dressing

Do you like Ranch?  I do.  I like love it a LOT.  Probably more than I should.  Because we all should be careful with creamy dips and dressings right?


Sure.  But we can be a little less careful with this one.

De-Lightful Ranch Dip or Dressing
Recipe ever so slightly adapted from Ellie Krieger
Prep time: 5 minutes

2/3 cup Greek yogurt (if you want dressing, use 1/3 cup yogurt and 1/3 cup low fat buttermilk)
3 tbsp mayonnaise
1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp finely chopped chives
Salt

1.  Combine all ingredients in a small bowl.  Season to taste with salt.
Other than chives, I keep all of this stuff on-hand


If you're still not sure this is at least worth a taste, to give a little health perspective on this, two tablespoons of a name brand, bottle Ranch dressing is 110 calories.  Two tablespoons of this recipe is 50 calories.  Just an FYI as we're still in swimsuit season. ;)
