    I've started using chunky salsa as a salad dressing and love it.

    Got this from a Bobby Flay dish:

    1 TBSP Dijon Mustard
    1 TBSP Honey
    1/4 cup Red Wine Vinegar
    1/2 Extra Virgin Olive Oil

    It's so great! It went with a Quinoa, Asparagus, Olive, and Goat Cheese Salad

    This was in my cooking light mag.

    Tomato Stack Salad with Corn and Avocado

    Ingredients
    Dressing:
    1/3 cup low-fat buttermilk
    1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
    2 tablespoons reduced-fat sour cream
    1 tablespoon reduced-fat mayonnaise
    1/2 teaspoon grated lime rind
    1/4 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
    Dash of ground red pepper

    Salad:
    4 medium heirloom tomatoes (about 2 pounds)
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 cup very thinly vertically sliced red onion
    1 cup diced peeled avocado (about 1 small)
    2 ears roasted corn
    Coarsely ground black pepper (optional)

    Preparation
    1. To prepare dressing, combine first 9 ingredients in a small food processor or blender; process 30 seconds or until pureed, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Cover and chill.

    2. To prepare salad, slice each tomato crosswise into 4 equal slices (about 1/2 inch thick). Place 1 tomato slice on each of 4 salad plates; sprinkle slices evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Top each serving with a few onion pieces and about 1 tablespoon avocado. Repeat layers 3 times, ending with avocado and corn. Drizzle 2 tablespoons dressing over each serving; sprinkle with black pepper, if desired.

    Classic vinagrette is about 3-4 parts olive oil to 1 part lemon or vinegar, so almost 200 kCal for 2 Tablespoons. Some reduced fat dressings I like are:

    Oriental
    1 part nut oil (hazelnut, walnut or sesame)
    1 part soy sauce
    1 part balsamic vinegar

    Light Ranch
    2 parts buttermilk
    1 part mayonnaise
    dried herbs and garlic salt to taste

    Cheers. acpgee
