The Best Low Fat Ranch Dressing Recipe

September 9, 2015 by Christy Gossett 1 Comment

You’ve just come across the Best Low Fat Ranch Dressing recipe you’ll ever try. Simple to make, this creamy, thick, and delicious dressing delivers authentic ranch flavor, but lower in fat.

Low Fat Buttermilk Ranch Dressing Recipe

We love Ranch Dressing, but we try to keep things light around here. Low-fat, store-bought brands just don’t deliver the authentic ranch flavor we love so we scoured the internet for a Low Fat Ranch Dressing recipe that tastes like the original. Most of the recipes we found use Greek yogurt so we tried that, but that just wasn’t the flavor we were going for. Instead, we took bits and pieces from other recipes and came up with this amazingly creamy Low Fat Ranch Dressing that’s perfect on salads, as a dip on a party platter, or anything else that you use traditional Ranch Dressing for. This dressing is very simple to make and store in the refrigerator to pull out whenever you’re having a craving!
