    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.
