low sodium dressings

Anybody know a brand or recipie for low sodium dressing??

Mix the following ingredients together:

1/3 cup reduced fat sour cream
1/3 cup fat free plain yogurt
2 tbsp honey
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 1/2 tsp lime zest
2 tsp lime juice

You can substitute lemon for lime if you like. I find taking all the zest from a decent sized lime is enough. This makes 6 servings of 2 tbsp each. Here are the numbers based on the ingredients I use.

47 calories
8 g carbs
1 g fat
2 g protein
16 mg sodium
5 mg cholesterol

Extremely tasty. Especially good on a salad with some chicken and/or fresh fruit like strawberries, blackberries, or blueberries.

Cheers!

There are tons of recipes out there. I found one by just googling my dressing type and put low sodium and recipe after it. Here is one for western dressing that I found on Yummly.com.

1/2 C reduced sodium ketchup
1/2 C vegetable oil
1/3 C sugar ( I used only 1/4 C and it was plenty sweet enough)
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1/4 Tsp pepper
1/4 C cider vinegar
1 onion grated (optional) I think 1/4 c would be good.

Mix all ingredients well; store in refrigerator.

It lists it as 24 servings 58 calories and only 56mg of sodium and 5g of Fat and 5g of carbs. I used less sugar and used a no sodium added ketchup and came up even less.
