  • I always use mustard, some balsamico, pepper and some yoghurt!
  • I like something creamy also so I take my salsa and add a tbs of yogurt or cottage cheese or fat free sour cream or light mayo to it

    White Balsamic Vinegar
  • Just thought of another one I haven't bought for a long time, I think I used it so often at one time I got tired of it, but I'm ready to pick it up again! Annie's Artichoke Parmesan dressing. 90 calories for 2 tablespoons so it isn't super low-cal, but it's yummy. I've never tried the Bolthouse Farms, but I definitely plan to after reading some of these posts.

    I like yogurt ranch. Boathouse makes one that is 45 calories for two tablespoons. Marie's brand also makes a good low-cal option. Those brands are found in the produce section of most supermarkets.

    A company called Saratoga Olive Oil Co makes amazing flavored vinegars and olive oils. I love their lemon olive oil paired with their blueberry balsamic vinegar. Amazing.

    Ranch dressing made with Greek yogurt.

    2 cups Greek yogurt (I use 2 percent Trader Joe's Greek Yogurt)
    1 Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing mix
    1 percent milk

    Mix Greek yogurt and Hidden Valley mix together....add milk until it's the right thickness. ( doesn't take much)

    It's only 50 cals per 1/4 cup .....plus 6 grams protein!

    do you know a balsamic vinegar (or any kind of vinegar) that does not taste too tart, but more sweet, kind of like when you get a Greek salad or a cucumber salad in a Thai restaurant - its kind of sweet.

    and YAY I love poppyseed dressing so much!!! its worth the calories though i thought they were not too bad for dressing.

    Balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, or a homemade balsamic vinaigrette.

    Bolthouse Farms Classic Ranch yogurt dressing ... 25 cal per T (in Canada)
    Bolthouse Farms Salsa Ranch yogurt dressing ... 20 cal per T (in Canada)

    I like creamy dressings as opposed to vinaigrettes and these 2 hit my happy buttons.

    I found them at Wal-mart in the refrigerated produce section.

    I didn't read through the thread before I posted but I see I'm not the only one who voted for this brand.
    Truly, they are the best low-calorie ranch dressings I've ever tried.
