    this sounds so yummy and easy, and I cannot believe the difference in calories! I will have to start doing this b/c I love ranch, but it is such a waste of calories!

    This sounds great! Adding it to my new "healthy recipe" file. My daughter is a Ranch freak - eats it on everything - she got me hooked on it with pizza.
