    if you like ranch dressing, this dressing is an AMAZING alternative. seriously, this stuff is so good.

    in a blender:
    1 large avocado
    2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
    1/2 cup greek yogurt
    1 teaspoon hot sauce
    1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
    2 garlic cloves

    when it comes to salad dressing I like to keep it simple and fast.
    1 part lemon juice or vinegar
    1 part oil (preferably olive)
    salt and pepper to taste

    These are fabulous, low-calorie, and healthy. I've only been able to find it in the refrigerated section at Kroger. Several varieties, but I love the blue cheese.

    low calorie--->EEVO and balsamic vinegar.

    Yesterday, 2 TBSP on buttermilk ranch(Ken's), 1/2 TBSP EEVO, some wasabi sauce mixed together. The EEVO helps to thin out the buttermilk. This is not low cal but it is pretty tasty with some zing!

    I use 2 tbsp of dannon oikos dips either french onion or the cucumber dill & they are so good on my salads (I usually eat one per day) it seems to be a better option to dressing in my opinion & I prefer the taste.

    I do this too, but I thin it out a little with lemon juice and sometimes and an herb mix from the local spice shop. Yesterday's was French onion dip with a shallot and dill herb mix. 2 tbsp was 35 calories.

    I actually skip the dressing and crush up a quarter or a half of an avocado. I think it tastes even better than dressing!

    My current fave ---I like to add the agave if I am using the dressing with bitter greens like kale or arugula. Sometimes I will omit the agave and sub for a little mashed avo and turmeric.


    Miso
    Agave optional
    water-add by the tablespoon until desired consistency
    minced garlic
