I do not name these potato skins "the best" lightly. I've accidentally done years and years of research on potato skins and many times I've even made them myself. Even though making these little guys is rather simple, there are a few ways you can go wrong in the process.

Have you ever bit into a potato skin and the first thing you taste is the bland skin? And it's only after a few chews that you finally get some flavor in your mouth? I've experienced it a lot. Nobody wants to eat the skin unless it's perfectly crispy and salty. This is the first thing most important thing that gets your potato skins on the road to being the best.

Since your tongue is what is actually tasting your food, we need to make sure that the layers are perfectly seasoned from bottom to top. This bring us to the next layer- the potato that is still attached to the skin. A lot of times this part is way too thick and since it's still attached, you can't season it all the way through. The solution? Make this area thinner.

Here are the skins looking like little boats. I used a knife to carve out the potato, but you could probably achieve the same results with a spoon. If you use a knife, be careful, pay attention, and cut slowly.

A dollop of zero point ranch makes anything better! Check out that recipe here.

I remember the first time a friend of mine tried homemade ranch dip. Somehow she had gone through her entire life without having this deliciousness. Ranch dip is a staple for party food, but it's also a great addition to a lot of things- like pizza. When we started WW this was one of the first things we converted to a WW friendly recipe. Except it aint even right calling it a recipe because it's two ingredients.

And this homemade ranch dip is going to be a million times better than any low-fat ranch dressing you can buy. This only takes a second to make and it's worth that time.

This dip can be thinned out with a little vinegar to make it more of a dressing. I do that when we eat take out Greek food. It's little things like that can save you a lot of points when eating out. 
Okay let's get to the recipe. You're gonna laugh because it's not much of a recipe.

Ingredients:
- 16 oz. Plain Non-fat Greek Yogurt
- 1 Ranch Dip Mix Packet

Directions:
1. Add the ingredients to a bowl and mix.
2. Store in the refrigerator for up to 7 days, if it lasts that long!

And that's it! Are you a ranch lover? If you are, what is your favorite to eat it with? I hope you are as happy as I am that a WW ranch recipe exists. It's the simple things like this that get you through.
