Hello! you dont need to buy dressings! you can make your own. If you stay away from processed stuff is even better. This is what i do for a huge bowl of salad:
1/3 cup or lemon juice, mixed with a bit of vinager, pepper, salt, and 1 tea spoon of mustard. Mix. Then add a bit of olive oil and mix again.
You can make it also adding a bit of honey, orange juice.....just play with flavours and discover the taste you like the most.
Cheers

My favorite is Kraft Greek with Feta and Oregano. Only 60 calories for a tablespoon. It's made with olive oil so it has the good fats: heart-healthy omega 3s A little bit goes a long way.0

I don't know if you've tried the Walden Farms brand, but they have dressings, marinades, and even dessert components that are sugar free, fat free, zero carb. I think they're pretty good.0

I like to use hot sauce as a salad dressing
It gives the salad a kick and is not bad for you at all0 -

I love the kens light accent in the spray bottle. Honey mustard is the best flavor. I also use it on baked chicken. great on baby spinach with tomatoes.0

Bolthouse yogurt dressings.0

keep dressing on the side and dip a little at a time
or use 1/2 of what you usually do and top off with fresh squeezed lemon juice0 -
Bolt house yogurt dressings are the Bomb! Also newman's own light red wine vinegar and oil. I like to use Wishbone Salad Spritzers too. I have tried the walden farm dressings and did not like them, but you may so give them a whirl!0

Trader Joe's carries a couple of good ones. My favorites are the Cilantro Dressing at 45 cal per 2 TBS and the Cranberry Walnut Gorgonzola at 90 cal per 2 TBS. when I'm really missing my favorite decadent ranch or creamy italian dressing though, I mix 1 TBS of the dressing with 1 TBS white vinegar for a "low cal" version.0

This sounds delicious! I am definitely going to try it.
Another really yummy "herby" concoction is the low-fat green goddess dressing on Epicurious.com:
