Does anyone knows how to make a good tasty low calorie salad dressing?

Answer 1

The possibilities are ENDLESS...... I guess for a quick, creamy dressing, combine lowfat sour cream, low fat mayo and a splash of cider vinegar with salt and white pepper to taste. Add some freshly minced herbs.

I like oven roasted tomato vinaigrette:
using about 1 dozen plum tomatoes cut in half lengthwise, marinade them in balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper and crushed fresh oregano. Place on a wire rack with the cut side down and place into an oven preheated to 200F. Cooking on this low temperature will dehydrate and concentrate the flavors. Next use a mixture of red wine and balsamic vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of dijon mustard place the tomatoes into a blender with the vinegars. Slowly drizzle either olive oil or grapeseed oil to emulsify the vinaigrette. This should keep up to 5 days covered in the refrigerator.

Really the only thing that limits you is what you can think of and your personal preferences for food. Good luck and happy dining.

Answer 2

how about a sprinkle of healthy olive oil and salt?


One of my favorite low-fat meals is a salad of any kind. I use this base as the dressing and then add other things depending on what I'm serving it with:

Low Fat , Low Calorie Creamy Salad Dressing
This is for one serving and it has 60 calories and 2 grams of fat.

2 Tbsp. Low Fat Mayo
1 Tbsp. no-fat half and half
2 tsp. red wine vinegar
a few drops of lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste

Sometimes I peel, seed and dice a tomato and add that to it. Sometimes I add a little tarragon and use it for chicken salad. The variations are endless depending on your own taste
