I was going to say the same thing! I also like Newman's Own honey mustard. It's spicy! I'm not sure of the calorie content, but I love both these dressings because they don't taste "light" at all.

About how much calories are these? Is there such a thing as a dressing with about 20 calories for every 2 teaspoons?

Ok, Newman's Own Light Balsamic Vinaigrette has 45 calories in 2 tablespoons.
The honey mustard has 70 calories in 2 tablespoons.

try the Fat Free Italian. Wishbone is 20 calories per 2 Tbsp.

Maple Grove Farms Salad Dressing Fat Free Raspberry Vinaigrette is 35 calories per 2 Tbsp.

Maple Grove Farms Salad Dressing Fat Free Balsamic Vinaigrette is only 5 calories per Tbsp.

I like the Balsamic Breeze salad spritzer by Wishbone. It's only 1 calorie per spritz, or something like that.

Re: Anyone Have a Great Low Calorie Salad Dressing

If you feel like making your own, I use my MIL "recipe" (it's so simple it's not really a recipe).

Olive oil
Red wine vinegar
salt & pepper
packet of sweet n low

For a small salad for me and DH, I use one quick swirl around the bowl of olive oil. Then a few shakes of the vinegar. Sprinkle on some S&P and maybe 1/2 the packet of Sweet n low. It's very light, and obviously no measuring is involved. It tastes different every time I do it (but perfect every time my MIL does it, go figure).
