Target's Market Pantry Red Wine Vinegrette and Paul Newman's Own Lighten Up! Light Lime Vinegrette. Both are really low in calories and taste great! I like the creamy dressings too. These ones are my favorites for summer though.0

truthfully you have to get your fat from somewhere and I most of the time use regular salad dressing. I carefully measure it. I sometimes will do a light dressing. I like Ken's light sweet vidalia onion.0

Hendrickson's Sweet Vinegar and Olive Oil. Yum. I put it on Cucumber salad, salad, chicken, pasta, etc.0

I never cared for any light or fat free dressing. I would rather do 1/2 the serving of a nice, real blue cheese and mix in a tbspoon fat free milk to make it cover. I had wishbones power fruit vinegarette today....and that was yummy!!0

Marzetti Light Balsamic Vinaigarette - 50 cals per serving
or my all-time fave
Newman's Own Lighten Up! Sesame Ginger - 35 cals per serving0 -
I have grown accustomed to just balsamic vinegar and red pepper flakes. It's especially good on spinach salad. If I want to pretend it's creamy, I mix balsamic with dijon mustard and thin it out with water a bit.
Thankfully I like the taste of my veggies, otherwise I don't think these dressings would really cut it0 -
thanks guys! off to the store:)0

Kraft has a lite ranch that taste fine to me. i think it is 25 calories. Or you could try cucumber dressing it is creamy. I toss just greens with the cucumber and add dried dill all over. I love Italian dressing myself. i just buy the lite stuff and put it on everything.0

My husband and I ran across this one in one of our cookbooks. If you like a hint of lime, this was soooooo yummy.
Honey Lime Dressing
Plain Yogurt, 0.33 cup
Sour Cream, 5.28 tbsp
Honey, 2 tbsp
Fresh Lime Zest, 1.5 tsp
Lime juice - 0.04 cup
Salt, 0.25 tsp
Pepper, black, 0.25 tsp
I copied out of my recipes so sorry for some of the odd numbers. Can convert at cooks.com
Best of luck

Bolthouse Farms Olive Oil Vinaigrette and Creamy Yogurt types. Lots of choices in both categories.
Ken's Light Dressings has many good ones.
Annie's Naturals are fantastic and claim to be organic.0 -
