Low Calorie Ranch Dressing Recipe – 2 Point Total
Ok, I seriously am not the kinda gal who can handle a measly 2 tbsp of salad dressing on my salads. I like to REALLY cover my greens and eat as much salad dressing as I can! But, being a Weight Watcher, I need to be aware of the Point value of what I’m eating and not go past my daily Weight Watchers Points range. So when one of my readers shared her super low calorie ranch salad dressing recipe with me, I was psyched and couldn’t wait to try it! Tamela, who is the loyal reader who submitted this recipe, also loves a lot of salad dressing on her salads, especially ranch dressing! So she spent some time experimenting and came up with this Weight Watcher Salad Dressing Recipe! I whipped up some this weekend and it was quite YUMMY!!! It’s a great way to indulge in a lot of salad dressing without consuming a lot of calories and Weight Watchers Points. If you are a member of the Weight Watchers program, this ranch dressing recipe is a must try. Thanks for the awesome low calorie recipe, Tamela!

This sounds great…thank you. But I am new to your website and I have a question regarding the serving size of this recipe. It said “This recipe makes an amazing 6-7 tbsp serving!!! Then the total point value per serving is 2 points, so does that mean that this 6-7 tbsp is one serving and is 2 points? Thanks

Is the Hidden Valley Ranch the powder mix or the already prepared?
May 13th, 2009 at 10:32 am
It is the Hidden Valley powder mix.
May 13th, 2009 at 10:33 am
Yes!! That means the whole serving (6-7 tbsp) is only a 2 Point Value total!! Woo Hoo!!!

Would the point value change if I use Fat Free Buttermilk instead of the water? I LOVE Ranch Dressing, but all the fat free versions taste nothing like the real thing. I thought that by adding buttermilk, it might taste more like regular Ranch Dressing.

Yes, it will add about 1 -2 additional point values per serving, depending on how much of the fat free buttermilk you use. Good idea though! I’m sure the taste will be a bit better, as long as you don’t mind the additional point values!

Wow, that’s a huge serving size! I know what will be on my table for Memorial Day. I may eve throw some garlic in this and use it in place of the usual dressing for potato salad.
Thanks!

I am eating this right now and I love it. I sent it to work with my husband, too. Hopefully he will give it the thumbs up as well. It was very easy to make and tastes even better than regular Ranch! Thanks for sharing!

I have been unable to find the Hellman’s low-fat Mayo. Any suggestions, I love ranch dressing. Have been wanting to try this since you listed it. Thanks for any ideas.
