Ceasar dressing is my favourite but unfortunately its not the best. So I'm wondering what's a great low cal salad dressing? Mostly for spinach and romaine lettuce.

    Ken's Lite Creamy Caesar. 90 calories/2tbsp.

    I like to mix the Caesar with a raspberry balsamic (Maple Grove Farms) or other fruity balsamic dressing to balance my love of fruity/creamy dressings :)

    They make some really delicious, if not a bit expensive, Caesar vinigrettes that are lower calorie. Personally I stick to balsamic, but I really love it, I use it for salads, for marinading meats and for drizzling on avocados.

    Good quality balsamic vinegar + virgin olive oil. Can't beat that for low calories. Avoid the processed, packaged, supermarket stuff. Look for organic, all natural, no artificial sweeteners, low sugar totals on the label.

    Balsamic, raspberry or cranberry vinaigrettes; my daughter loves the Newman's Own dressings. I use salsa a lot in place of dressing on salad. But, for my favorite dressings I just take the calories, no way I'm using a reduced fat blue cheese, to me, it doesn't even come close to the really thing.

    I like fat-free cottage cheese. Extra does of protein! :)

    Bolthouse Farms Caesar Parmigiano yogurt dressing. 45 cal / 2 Tbsp. Really good stuff!!! You can also mix it with salsa if you like a "wet" salad and save some calories. Bolthouse Farms also makes a Ranch and Blue Cheese. You can find it in the refrigerated section near the lettuce.

    Kraft Fruit & Veg dressing is quite low cal. They have a garlic one that is caesar-esque.
