Homemade Ranch Dressing

Warning: this post contains WEIRD FOOD!  One day in a WW meeting a lady starting talking about her loooooove of ranch.  Everyone knows, if you are going to eat ranch dressing you have to do full fat, because the light variety is nasty. But at 2pp per T., who really wants to waste the points.  Anyways, this lady talked about how she mixed cottage cheese with Hidden Valley Ranch powder in her food processor, and how it tasted like regular ranch dressing and she could eat 1/2 cup of it for 2pp! I had to try it, and you know what, she was right!  I used this ranch as a veggie dip with none other than dragon tongue beans from our CSA! That right - these very odd looking beans taste like regular green beans and you can eat them raw or cooked.  Give them a whirl!

Servings: 4
Serving Size: 1/4 cup
Points Plus: 1pp
Level of Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 2 minutes
Cook Time: n/a
Rating: 4 - Very Good

Ingredient List:
1 cup 1% cottage cheese
1 T. Hidden Valley Ranch powder
1 T. skim milk

Directions: 
Mix ingredients in a small food processor and blend! Serve with veggies

Tip:
The more milk or liquid you add the thinner the dressing will be.  I think if you added 2 T. of milk your dressing would be of salad dressing consistency!
