Renee's southwest ranch is my favorite salad dressing now. This is the best salad dressing I've ever had store bought. I'm eating chicken salads all week now. Wanted to rave about this dressing and hear others favorites. What do you recommend?

    Right now I'm all about a combo of red wine vinegar, pomegranete molasses, dijon, olive oil, cracked pepper and salt.

    Bolthouse Farms have AMAZING flavours and most of the dressings are around 40calories/2tbsp. They are seriously bomb, and the only dressings I ever use anymore

    I make an awesome dressing with extra virgin olive oil, white balsamic vinegar, Italian herb seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, and a pinch of stevia. No salt or preservatives, and it tastes great on fresh greens.

    Dijon mustard with vinegar is mine. Maybe 5 calories from the mustard?

    It's a toss up between Bolthouse Farms creamy cilantro and avocado for 60g (2 TBLS) for 40 calories or Bolthouse Farms Classic Ranch you get 60g (2 TBLS) for 45 calories.

    Olive oil, balsamic vinegar and a squeeze of lemon. So refreshing and tasty. Sometimes with some salt and pepper or a little bit of Dijon mustard in.

    This sounds delicious. Pomegranate molasses?

    I've made something similar, minus the stevia. I put it in one of those salads in a jar. Yum.

    I also like just salsa. If I'm feeling rebellious I add avocado and greek yogurt.

    Homemade garlic shallot vinegrette with lots of black pepper. It packs a punch so I only need to use about a tablespoon. Bad thing is, I can't bring it to work because it will stink up the place.

    I like the Panera dressings you can buy in the refrigerated section. Very low cal for 2 tbsp and I think they taste great. My favorites are the poppyseed and the Asian sesame.

    I prefer to make my own, twice the oil to the vinegar. I use flax oil, lemon juice, smoked paprika, garlic, and salt. I think.
