    My favorite is Ken's Light Northern Italian With Basil and Romano, 2 Tablespoons is 45 calories, and I usually only use about one tablespoon. I can't tell at all that its "light" in the taste, and I love the little bit of cheese flavor!

    Bolthouse Farms Raspberry Vinaigrette is 15 calories per tablespoon and their (Light?) Parmesan Caesar Dressing is only 25 calories per tablespoon. I'm sure their other dressings are low calorie and just as tasty but those are the only two I've had recently. Salsa can make a good salad dressing, lemon juice can too.

    One of my favorites for a mexican chicken salad is from Que Pasa, one of my favorite places to eat.

    The salad is:

    tortilla chips ( I used baked) topped with a tablespoon or two of non-fat refried beans
    chicken strips seasoned lightly with All-Season's seasonings
    lots of lettuce
    Mexican crumbled cheese or shredded jack cheese
    salsa (optional)

    Dressing:

    1 Tbs Olive Oil
    1 Tbs Lime juice
    2 Teaspoons juice from the jar of Jalapenos

    I don't know the calories of the dressing but I love to have this for a dinner meal. Yummy! For some reason the flavor is perfect for me. and I never really measure the dressing. Just a splash of EVOO, squeeze a half lime and a splash of jalapeno juice. A little dressing goes a long way!
