    I love this dressing if you are Team Cilantro and have a Trader Joe's near you. If not, move on. :)

    It is so delicious and a little goes a long way.

    I also use Organicville's olive oil and balsamic dressing which is quite tasty.

    ETA: I steer clear of fake stuff so it is rather hard with salad dressing.

    I almost forgot one of my homemade faves! A little bit of sour cream and salsa mixed together. Very yummy!

    My Favorite salad dressing EVER is Annie's Goddess. There is a light version that only has 60 calories per serving. It seriously is sooooo good.

    feel free to look at my diary. I use several different salad dsg. One of my favorites is Olive garden low calorie dsg. I can only find it at Walmart though.

    Makoto Ginger Dressing is awesome!
    I typically use a drizzle of balsamic and extra virgin olive oil, and some fresh cracked black pepper.
    Lemon juice and fresh chopped herbs go a long ways too.

    Not necessarily very low-cal, but all the calories are from olive and canola oil and a 90-calorie single tablespoon is enough for a very large salad. I love Newman's Own Olive Oil & Vinegar.

    We absolutely adore Cardini's light Greek vinaigrette! Only 50 cal/serving, with real chunks of feta! (Their light caesar is good and creamy, too.)

    Bolthouse classic ranch - 45 cals for 2T or Aunt Mid's raspberry - 40 cals of 2T. Both are in the refrigerator section, and both are yummy :)

    I found this one and I am in LOVE with it. I always used to be a ranch, french or Italian dressing girl and it took me a while to find something low cal and low sodium that I liked. This is definitely it. You can get it in the grocery store or Walmart. Olde Cape Cod Lite sweet and sour poppyseed dressing. Don't let the name scare you, it's slightly sweet with a bit of tang and a great flavor. It has 80 cals per 2 TBS, 35mg sodium, 10g carbs, 4g fat and 0g protein.

    Yup, the Caesar Parm is to die for! All the flavors I have tries are good though.

    Newman's Own Lite Honey Mustard, 35 calories per TSP.
    Also fat free Greek yogurt thinned with a little water and add any spices you like.

    I make all my own dressings. It's super easy and all you need is oil and vinegar! Just keep the ratio of 3:1 (oil:vinegar). My current favourite is 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, and lemon or lime juice. Balsamic and red wine vinegars also make delicious dressings!

    Oil and apple cider vinegar.

    I'm also a big Ken's Steakhouse Dressings fan, when I want both a dinner salad and some variety.
