Blue Cheese Alternative?

I switched to Blue Cheese Crumbles (1/4 cup = 80 calories)... The Blue Cheese flavor is still in the salad, but ends up being fewer calories (for me) because I would probably over-dress a salad with the dressing.

Laughing Cow does a blue cheese spread which you can mash down, if you really want that blue cheese tang (nothing replaces it really does it).

Otherwise I'd suggest something high in flavour and salt, like maybe a dressing with balsalmic vinegar.

I add a little 1% milk and nonfat Greek yogurt to my blue cheese dressing.

Looking for a dressing for a alternative to blue cheese. I'm a picky eater and don't do ranch. I tried a raspberry vingerette today and wasn't to impressed. Need something with a little less calories than blue cheese to top my salads

Bolthouse yogurt-based blue cheese dressing. Something like 35 or 45 cals per serving (2 TBSP).

I find it at Kroger in the refrigerated veggie fixin's area.

Check skinnytaste.com and search for blue cheese dressing. I'm making it tonight as I have not tried it yet but I love all of her recipes thus far. Balsamic vinagrette dressings are good, as is kens light honey mustard. Ken's also makes a light sweet vidalia onion dressing that's delicious.

i like to use balsamic vinegar with about 1T of bleu cheese crumbles.

Cottage cheese mixed with balsamic vinegar is also tasty. You could even top with a few bleu cheese crumbles.

How about finding a creamy low fat/fat free dressing you like and then adding reduced fat blue cheese crumbles to it? I like Sunny Select brand Reduced Fat Blue Cheese Crumbles. Per 1oz (or about 1/4 cup) it's 80 calories, and still quite yummy.

I found an awesome greek yogurt based bleu cheese that is like 40 calories a serving.
