A friend of mine served this on a very simple salad consisting principally of Boston Lettuce. (The 'softness' of the lettuce seemed to go well with the combination). Anyway, she just gave me the recipe for it, so I thought I'd share.
This is TERRIFIC stuff, and since I learned tonight I'm actually supposed to incorporate 2-3 points of fats/oils into to my diet daily, I just may have to make me some.
The above, by the way, is for a single salad serving.

Got this from "reena" on old Weight Watchers threads 5/26/98 and wanted to share it. I haven't found a store bought LF Blue Cheese I like, and I'd never made salad dressing in my life, but this was great. Points were calculated in recipe, so I hope they're right. My whole Blue Cheese eatting family LOVED it!
1/3 cup skim milk
1/2 cup nonfat sour cream
3 oz. blue cheese, crumbled
1/2 t salt
1/4 t pepper
1 t oil
1 clove garlic
3/4 cup LF, large curd, cottage cheese
Combine all but cottage cheese in blender and blend until smoth. Pour into bowl and stir in cottage cheese. (This provides lumpy texture of real blue cheese dressing. If you prefer smooth, then go ahead and blend cottage cheese too.) Cover and refrigerate 2 hours. Makes 10 servings, 2 T = 1 point.

I found a "make-your-own" salad dressing shaker at the grocery store that had dressing recipies printed on the outside. I am so tired of bottled dressing and they are so expensive. This is wonderful and easy. Best of all, it just costs pennies to make.
French Vinaigertte- 1 point per serving
1 clove of garlic,crushed
1/4 cup olive oil (12 points)
1'2 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dried parsley ( or 2 fresh)
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 packet sugar substitute
Pinch of salt
Pinch of pepper
Put all into a small screw top jar. Shake and refrigerate for an hour. Shake well before using. This is so smooth and flavorful that 1 tablespoon will easily cover 2 cups of mixed greens.
A hint: I put my salad in a bowl with lid, add dressing,
cover and shake it up. The dressing covers all the lettuce!
Let me know if you like it. I have a few more too if anyone is interested.

1/2 cup olive oil

2 heads romaine lettuce
1 red onion cut in rings
chopped roma tomatoes
chopped cucumber
1 can sliced black olives
Feta cheese - 1 container, crumbled over salad
Toss together and enjoy!! This may be more dressing than the salad needs so combine to taste.
I'm sorry I don't know the points for the dressing. It is probably app. 2 points per tablespoon, maybe a bit more.

Put in blender:
½ med size red pepper
2 med tomatoes
½ cup fresh basil
2 cloves garlic
½ cup orange juice
½ cup parsley
¼ cup rasberry vinegar
1 Tbs dry mustard
2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
2 tsp fresh oregano

•2 cups Dry minced parsley flakes
•1/2 cup Dry minced onion

Hope you find one that makes your taste buds tingle.

Best (nearly) fat-free 5 minute homemade Caesar dressing
This is a modification of the BEST fat-free homemade dressing I have ever had. It does have a bit of a Dijon tang to it, which makes it taste Caesar-ey!
1/2 cup non-fat greek yogurt (not Yoplait, that’s not real Greek Yogurt)
2 tbsp grated non-fat Kraft Parmesan (or low-fat…which is why it’s nearly fat-free)
1 tbsp lemon juice, freshly squeezed is best but RealLemon is ok in a pinch
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
2 tsp Dijon mustard
1/8 tsp black pepper
Put in a cruet and shake. This recipe makes 4 servings of 3 TBSP each. The WW value for old points is 1 point per serving. Here are the stats: Calories = 28 per serving Fiber = .5 per serving Fat = .5 per serving if you use low-fat parmesan cheese and 0 if not.
*Note: The original recipe called for fat free mayonnaise, which I really dislike as it has an aftertaste to me. Additionally, you may need to thin this dressing as it sits in the fridge, it gets a bit thick.

I also make a great Ranch dip with non-fat cottage cheese and a packet of fat free ranch powder blended in the blender. It doesn't have many calories, but you'll have to compute it yourself. I thin this dressing/dip with fat free buttermilk as necessary. It's very good!
