Ranch?

I really love ranch dressing. However, all of the low fat and fat free types I have tried are just not good. They all just taste tangy to me. Ranch should be creamy not tangy. Does anyone know of a good ranch type substance that is not so awful for me?
 
try this one --
(most low fat ranch dressings are made with plain yogurt which gives them that tanginess... buttermilk gives you the smoothness....

3/4 cup low fat mayonnaise (not fat free - that's l ike paste)
1/2 cup lowfat buttermilk
2 tablespoons dried parsley (and it's gotta be dried)
1/2 teaspoon minced dried onion (it's gotta be dried)
1 clove garlic -- minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons parmesan cheese

Mix all ingredients except buttermilk in a blender, then slowly add in the buttermilk. Stick in fridge a few hours and serve...

It's not really super low calorie... but it's low fat,a nd rich and creamy so you don't need a whole lot...
