Did you know that 2 tablespoons of Ranch dressing has 510 calories and 54 grams of fat? For a healthier alternative, try this recipe.

1 Cup Texas Hill Country Olive Oil

1/2 Cup Red Wine Vinegar

1/4 tsp Oregano

1/4 tsp Thyme

1 pinch of Rosemary

Shake well, and you have a delicious, homemade alternative to fatty dressings. Nathan's dressing has less than half the fat and calories of Ranch.
