I just whipped up this recipe I found a while back on Pinterest:

It's basically cottage cheese, water, and ranch dressing mix blended together to dressing consistency. Comparing it side-by-side with Hidden Valley Ranch, it's much lower in calories and much higher in protein. It takes pretty good, I'll be using it to dip my carrots in later today. I think it's a good option for people trying to eat better and increase their protein.
 
I like the Bacon Ranch dressing. Ranch dressing is my favorite dressing over salads!! It is so good!!! :wink:
 
You could go with a homemade lighter version in the mix. I know it's more labour intensive but sometimes it's worth it when you control all the ingredients that go into the mix. Add some vegan friendly Bacos to the mix & you're on your way.
 
JoanMcWench, how could I make it even lighter? I would love any suggestions! Do you mean the dressing mix? I would love to be able to make that myself as well, I don't mind that it might be a bit more labor intensive.
