    I like 1 - 2 cups shredded romaine lettuce, 1 tablespoon shredded italian blend cheese, 1 tablespoon dried cranberries, and 2 tablespoons of poppyseed salad dressing. I usually eat this as a side with a lean meat, like chicken breast or a mild fish.

    I love chicken caesar salads! It just sucks the dressing isn't so figure friendly! I usually go with a FF ranch instead!

    Also, a lot of times I'll have a small salad with dinner that is just iceberg, carrots, cukes (if I have them), parmesan cheese, and some Ken's Italian Vinegarette dressing! SO good! (I like the spray dressing because it's only X amount of carbs per spray!)

    I love caesar salad as well, that's why i only have it as a treat!!! Myself, i don't like lite dressings. I use the regular but just a little bit. I try to fill up on oven roasted frozen veggies i get a sam's club.

    I love the regular ceaser dressing also but since its loaded with calories i bought ceaser vinegrette and its awsome, you should try it!

    I like baby romaine, diced watermelon, balsamic & EVOO with Parmesano Reggiano cheese. I make big curls with my potato peeler. Some kosher salt & fresh ground pepper. Add in some grilled chicken and it's dinner.

    Like a lot of you I love caesar salad with grilled chicken, but I don't usually get the regular caesar dressing because of the calories and it's so thick it weighs down the salad. I found a fabulous alternative. Mix 2 Tbsp. Ken's lite northern italian and 1 Tbsp. Ken's creamy caesar. The taste is just wonderful and it pours on the salad a lot easier. This tops a very large salad also so enough to share if you like.

    3 cups baby greens & spinach mix
    1 green onion, snipped
    1/4 cup of cilantro
    2 tbsp Kraft Light Asian Sesame Dressing
    6 cooked shrimp, peeled and cooled

    This is my favorite salad. I almost always have frozen shrimp, so I end up making this for/with lunch quite often.

    these all sound SO good.

    i like to take baby spinach, grilled chicken, onion, black olives, green pepper, salsa, and sour cream. it's like a taco salad from a mexican rest. but better FOR you and better TASTING.

    I love fatoush salad...I love the fresh mint and parsley and the sumac...so fresh! It is my favourite salad ever! And pretty low cal, since it is mostly olive oil and lemon juice with the herbs as flavouring.

    I don't like salad dressing except for Italian (light Italian works for me), so luckily I don't have to worry about salad dressing calories. It's the one time being a picky eater pays off. Anyway, my favorite salad is

    romaine lettuce
    hard boiled egg
    turkey and/or ham
    parmesan cheese

    I also like to add apples if I think of it. Now I'm hungry for yummy salad.
