i usually use extra virgin olive oil and maybe some balsamic vingear over spinach or organic spring mix. the calorie counter jumps due to the evoo. any suggestions for lowest cal healthy dressing combos (fresh not bottled)? should i ditch the olive oil dr. oz loves it, etc thx

    I use Ken's Lite Northern Italian with Basil and Romano. It has 50 calories for 2 tbsp with only 1 gram of sugar. I'm a big fan. :)

    I've used fresh squeezed lemon juice + salt & pepper and/or Mrs Dash original seasoning as a salad dressing since I was a little girl. Tastes delicious to me & virutally no calories. If you like lemon, I definitely recommend trying it!

    If you have a Trader Joe's near you, they make a couple of yummy low cal dressings. Fat Free Balsamic Vinaigrette and Fat Free Sesame Soy Ginger Vinaigrette. They are both 25 calories for two tablespoons and actually taste really good. I usually hate fat free dressings but these are delicious.

    I don't know how low-cal it is, but I do think it's healthy. I mix together some extra-virgin cold-pressed olive oil, cider vinegar, fresh chopped garlic, and a bit of honey. Shake it up and pour it on. Delicious!
