    My fave dressing at the minute is a thai one..it makes a few servings

    tablespoon lemongrass paste/puree
    1 chopped garlic clove
    1 chopped chilli
    1/2 small shallot chopped
    tablespoon lime juice
    1/2 tablespoon red wine vinegar
    tablespoon olive oil

    This makes quite a thick sauce that you can thin down to taste with a little apple juice (the sweetness really works)

    Enjoy!

    I like this one -- http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/09/low-fat-buttermilk-ranch-dressing.html

    She has other dressings too that are good.

    Agreed. I love the blue cheese one and the tomato red wine.

    Hey I do a a really nice one with lime juice, olive oil and finely chopped garlic.

    This is what I use and it's for 1 person

    1/2 tsp finely chopped flat leaf parsley
    1/4 clove of finely chopped garlic
    1 tbsp lime juice
    25 ml olive oil
    A pinch of salt and black papper

    I normally add red onion to the mix...

    Add the onion & garlic to a bowl
    Add the parsley
    Mix in the lime juice and olive oil
    Add salt (if required) and black pepper to taste

    And enjoy :)

    I'm Thai. I always have my salads with Lime juice, sprinkle of salt and a lot of chili pepper... No oil, no sugar, no fat.

    Yummy! I will have to try that.

    I know I responded earlier, but this is what I've been eating the last couple of days:

    about half a tablespoon of white cooking wine
    about half a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar
    tablespoon of olive oil
    about a tablespoon of lemon juice
    healthy sprinkle each of garlic salt, black pepper, and dill
    little squirt of Dijon mustard (maybe half a teaspoon?)'

    Shake it all up and you're good to go. :)

    This makes several servings, but I usually toss 2 tbsp of labne, 2 tbps of greek yogurt, and some herbs like dill and basil in the blender
