One 2 Tablespoon serving of this ranch dip has only 16 calories and features 2.8 grams of protein (calculated using Chobani fat free Greek yogurt). Hidden Valley Ranch has 120 calories and no protein. Even though I love the taste of Hidden Valley Ranch, I don’t love how many calories are in each serving.
