    I find that I use less dressing always if I put the salad in a huge bowl, pour on a small amount of dressing and really stir it up so that everything is coated, then transfer to the plate. If I pour dressing onto the salad on the plate, it always takes more. Sometimes can limit dressing by putting it on the side, and dipping into it.

    Omfg you gotta try ranch. Use high protein greek yoghurt and a "ranch" seasoning of 1tsp each of garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, dried parsley, sea salt and 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper. Sooo good.

    I actually make my own with a Italian dressing seasoning packet to provide the spices. It is called Zesty Italian and it is a dry pack of seasoning that you add to your own oil and vinegar. I use APC plus MCT oil and a squeeze of lemon and flax seeds. It is the most delicious in the world. Low carbs, almost no sugar and good healthy fats.

    I always make my own.
    The vinegar is key.
    A basic is white balsamic vinaigrette (Trader Joe’s) or rice vinegar gourmet Kikoman brand it has a yellow top. No other but yellow top.

    Olive oil
    White balsamic
    One garlic clove (either pressed or blender)
    Pick one: orange slices, tangerine,
    Raspberries, blackberries or a little lemon
    If no press for garlic use a hand blender or normal blender to make an emulsion. Taste on lettuce or tomato add zero cal sweetener if needed
