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

Newman's Own has a sesame ginger dressing that I really like a LOT. It's great on salads and I use it on my steamed vegetables all the time, too!0

Try Bolthouse Farms Blue Cheese yogurt dressing. Only 35 calories per serving and tastes pretty good.0

Walden Farms has a no calorie blue cheese salad dressing and dip. You can get it at vistacost.com. I had it yesterday with my chicken and it was awesome. Hard to beleive it has no calories. You can also buy it at Shoprite if you have one of those stores near you.0

Bolthouse Farms chunky blue cheese yogurt dressing. 35 calories for 2 tablespoons.0

If you love that tangy blue cheese flavor, maybe try some reduced fat blue cheese crumbles, and add a little olive oil and vinegar? Gives you a similar taste but you can control how much cheese you need to satisfy.0

I LOVE BLUE CHEESE! So I totally understand that no swap will fully live up to the awesomeness. I usually find a way to fit in my fave dressings because a salad is so low on it's own. Also I find most "light" or "fat free" dressings are gross. I do have some healthier options on hand though..
Here's some in my fridge now:
1. Garlic Expressions
2. Good Seasons (this is the old school stuff you mix yourself at home, I use the "less oil" prep
3. Ken's Light Onion Vinaigrette
4. Oil and Red wine vinegar (in a pinch this is actually not so bad)
Hope that helps! Happy salad eating0 -
I think i will try this! will be cheaper than buying low calorie one. Thanks!0 -
If your favorite bleu cheese dressing is thick, and you tend to put on too much, try thinning it a little bit with milk. Makes it easier to pour all over your salad, so you use less.0

I tried Walden Farms. I did NOT like the flavor of their blue cheese "no calorie" dressing. It had a weird texture, too. I would never buy it again.0

I make my own and I use non fat greek yogurt instead of mayo. It's really good0

Marie Callendar and Litehouse both have low fat or lite versions of Blue Cheese. I am not a Ranch fan myself but do like the Marketside lowfat Buttermilk Ranch from Walmart....its in the produce section....you could try that with Feta cheese tpped on salad might be close to blue cheese dressing.0

This! Love this stuff0 -
Oh there is no replacing blue cheese! You could just try another strong flavor like catilina. Not blue cheese but it has a flavor all it's own too.0
