Fage nonfat is really thick and creamy and IMO makes a good sour cream substitute.
I can confidently say that it makes one of the best spinach dips I've even had. So tasty.
I even have some nonfat Fage in my bag right now. I just need to get up and get some fruit to have with it, and it's fruit and cream.
here's a recipe for ranch dressing, using dried herbs, mayo and sour cream. Hellman's reduced fat mayo is pretty good, and with a fat free yogurt, this could work -- [link]
I was just about to say that Fage nonfat is really thick and creamy and IMO makes a good sour cream substitute. I would think that some ranch dressing powder mixed in wouldn't be that bad for you.
You can make ranch dressing with mayonnaise and buttermilk. You don't really need the sour cream.
I love the ranch dressing powdered mix exactly because you can mix it with whatever -- yogurt, sour cream, mayo, etc. I usually use a mix of those + some milk/cream, depending on what I want to use it for.
I have never been so grateful for my aversion to sour cream as when reading that article.
I do think that the Japanese fugu chefs have an edge on Outback in terms of worst food for you, however, as Aussie cheese fries are unlikely to kill you before you can get up from the table.
Well, a bad fugu chef anyway.
Low fat food is even more evil than Ranch!
For some reason I can't change my mind on that opinion. I mean, if you weren't going somewhere fatty in the first place, okay. But if you are trying to replicate a fatty taste I start to balk. Even when it's done well.
I'm a blue cheese dressing fan. Nothing more disgusting than the low fat varieties. Why do they think adding sweet is a good plan? Blue cheese dressing should never be sweet.
