Salad dressing

Rebecca0224

I love salads! I use to use Italian dressing but got tired of it, what is your favorite salad dressing?

Opa greek jalapeno ranch. So good, low in calories and has a bit of a kick.

I have, for just about all of my life, hated salad dressing. Then I found the Bolthouse Farms yogurt dressings. They're delicious. I love the creamy parmesan and the cilantro avacado.

Apple Cider Vinegar???? seems to be all the rage this year.

I really am going to get in trouble.

I use a white balsamic that tastes so yum. But I'll probably have to switch over to Apple Cider Vinegar when I run out.

Apple cider vinegar makes me sick. The strong taste of vinegar in general makes me sick.

I wouldn't call it a dressing per se, but one of my favorite lunches is to take 1/2 cup of corn (canned or frozen/thawed), 1 sliced vegetarian hotdog, a handful of cherry tomatoes cut in half, a chunk of peeled and sliced cucumber, a slice of onion chopped up, a garlic dill pickle sliced, about a tablespoon of pickled jalapenos chopped up, and then mix it together with 1/4 cup of salsa, 1 tbsp sweet pickle relish, and 1 tbsp Tofutti Sour Supreme.

(Note: I generally don't measure non-starchy vegetables precisely. I figure whether the cucumber is 12 calories or 22 isn't a big deal. The corn, the veggie dog, the condiments? Those I measure.)

Hidden Valley Yogurt dressings---delicious.

I don't like plain sour cream, but add some dry ranch dressing mix to light sour cream and I can have 30 grams (more than enough for my salads) for 45 cals. Tastes way better than light ranch dressing and for a lot less calories.

Something I do like on salad is honey mustard, yum yum.

Another vote for Bolthouse farms! I think they are as delicious as any high calorie dressing. I love the creamy parmesan also, and the ranch.

I'm not a fan of creamy dressings but those sound good.

There's one Annie's it's called Woodstock- it's tomato-ey but creamy (via tahini I think, not dairy)...now that sounds weird but I bought it cause some lady in the aisle was raving and now it's my fave! I thin it out a little.

I will try that, thank you

A restaurant my friend owns makes a jalapeño garlic cilantro dressing that I love. I always have a jar in my fridge. The longer it sits, the hotter it gets too.
A lot of people like to cut it with ranch to tone it down a bit. It tastes good like that as well...I've just never been a huge ranch fan.

In the fridge look for Bolthouse. Yoghurt based, amazing calories and really nice. I've had the chipotle mango and a cilantro? avocado. That doesn't sound right but something avocado. They have a blue cheese, caesar, all kinds.

They're yoghurt based so maybe won't hit the same buttons?

Balsamic or red wine vinegar, drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper.

I use Kraft's low calorie Italian dressing a lot, but I also love Hidden Valley regular Ranch, which is not low calorie, but sometimes it's just worth it I also use Sweet Baby Rays Sweet n' Sour sauce quite a bit, as well as hot sauce.

I like Greek dressings, there's nothing better than a greek salad.

I also really like poppyseed dressings but most of them are kind of calorie heavy so I don't eat that super often but a salad with poppyseed dressing and strawberries. yum

I prefer homemade dressings but I do buy Bernstein Light Cheese Fantastico and I doctor it up with extra balsamic vinegar (white if I have it) and FRESH garlic. Given a few hours to sit it really improves. I also make a homemade ranch dressing with Light Mayo and sour cream with greek yogurt. I use it more on potatos though, lol.
