Enjoying Ranch Dressing

I used to love having ranch dressing on various foods.  One meal was fried chicken wings! Can you imagine all the fat, sodium and calories that were consumed from that?  Once I became more and more aware of what I was eating, I knew better choices were an absolute must.  Sure there is "fat free" and even "light" ranch available, but when you look at the nutritional label, you gain more in sodium. 

Here is a recipe that is healthier and taste so good.  I keep the glass jars from other food items and the make great containers for dressings. 



Ingredients:
1 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt 
1 whole package Hidden Valley Ranch dressing Mix 
1/4 cup skim or fat-free milk
