Ranch Dressing and Sugar

So, I will be the first to admit that I love, love, love ranch dressing. And not the fat-free stuff, it has to be real ranch dressing. I figure if i'm going to die, and the last thing I have is salad, it better have real ranch dressing on it. I will take one for the team and say that I will forfeit some calories for some good ranch dressing. Annnndddd, I have to have real sugar in my coffee. I figure four little packs of sugar won't kill me right? Is there something wrong with me? Please tell me I'm not the only one.

I love Ranch to!!! I ran across this recipe this morning and will trying it tonight with dinner.
This whole jar of ranch is only 1.75 grams of fat and 255 calories! 1 cup dannon oikos plain greek yogurt 1 packet hidden valley ranch mix 1/2 cup 1% milk Whisk together, chill 1 hour before use. Perfect consistency and tastes better than bottled!0 -
I do the ranch dressing mix and greek yogurt too. Try it. You may like it, not as much as the real thing, but it's got a lot of protein in it this way.0

i use walden farms calorie free, sugar, free, carb free, pretty much everything free "ranch dressing". It does have a slightly bitter after taste since it is vinegar based but it does the trick.0

I am TOTALLY trying this! I love ranch dressing (full fat/calorie version) and can't seem to compromise by getting the FF or light versions so this sounds great!0
