Receta Pinterest Fun Friday - Low Calorie Creamy Italian Dressing/Dip (10 Calories per Tablespoon)
Pinterest is one of my favorite sites. I can spend hours just looking around at all the crafty and innovative ideas that people come up with. It's actually a terrible place for me to waste a lot of time. I can’t tell you how much inspiration I get from Pinterest and how many different pins I have tired. Each Friday I like to feature something I have crafted, cooked, or found on Pinterest that I love!
This is a fantastic recipe that I can’t say enough about. The
flavor is great and you can’t beat the fact that it’s less than 10 calories per
tablespoon. I was honestly surprised with the outcome. I particularly love to
use it as a dip for carrots and celery. It’s ridiculously easy to put together,
very low in calories and a great go-to snack.
My one and only concern with this recipe is that Hidden
Valley Ranch products have MSG in them which to me is a bummer. I am trying to
avoid MSG if at all possible. Next time I make this dip/dressing I am going try
to make it with a good dry homemade italian dressing mix or see if I can find something
at Trader Joe’s.
