Yumm!! According to the Food Hero nutrition label (love that is here) per 2 tablespoons this has 35 calories less than the ranch dressing in my refrigerator. And may 4 year old didn't notice any difference eating tons of carrots and peppers with it. I may try sour cream next time instead of mayo. Plus you can use any spices.
