Let's face it, ranch rocks. Yummy as a dressing, a dip, or a marinade, it's a condiment all ages can agree on. But the commercial brands can be loaded with sodium and funky preservatives you can't pronounce, not good.
This mix of spices can be added to fat free or low fat plain yogurt, light sour cream, or my fave, low fat plain Greek yogurt. Make a big batch of the spice mix to keep on hand, and please your palate whenever you want to.
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
pinch of salt (sea salt if you've got it)
1/2 tsp. dried parsley flakes
1/4 tsp. dried onion flakes or onion powder
1/8 tsp. paprika
black or white pepper to taste
pinch of sugar
Mix all ingredients well, then add to 1/4 cup plain yogurt (or whatever you are using). Slowly mix in low fat milk until you get your desired consistency.
Mmmmmmmmmmmm!
*Make buttermilk ranch by thinning with low fat buttermilk instead of regular milk. Don't have any? Check this site for a "cheater" recipe.
