I always make my own with 1 tsp evoo, 1 tsp apple cider vinegar, sea salt and table blend mrs. dash. I do NOT like the other salad dressings either. I don't mind the WF Thousand Island in the Big Mac in a bowl.
take some yellow mustard, splenda, olive oil mix it together or......
Raspberry Vinegerette Dressing
4 tbsp. of WF Raspberry Fruit Spread
6 oz of olive oil
2-4 tbsp of white vinegar (depends how tart you like it, add the first 2 tbsp then taste and adjust to your liking)
I have an electric hand blender so I blend the fruit spread first to break it up a bit, then add the oil and vinegar and blend well.
The colour is light pink and is thick, but oh so Yummy!!!
Store in a covered jar on your cupboard.
This makes enough for 3 to 4 days depending how much you use!!

RENEEs brand has one italian that I like but it's not in all stores -- Renee's Tuscan Italian Fat Free 0/0/0 (has an orange colour at the top). Renee's is usually in the Salad section of the grocery -- not on the shelf-- because maybe it needs to be refrigerated (?) or can't be too near the "KRAFT" aisle? Anyway, it's yummy and "made in a peanut free facility" to boot
I always made my own with apple cider vinegar & EVOO with a few dashes of sea salt & pepper. I do not like the WF salad dressings on salads - I do enjoy them doctored up on stir frys though.

Great dressing ideas! The mustard one totally inspired the lunch I made today. For a salad dressing, I mixed some yellow mustard, cider vinegar, splenda, and sauerkraut w/a splash of pepperoncini juice. I'm going to put this on a green salad w/a warmed up turkey brat cut into pieces . . . inspired by the famous big mac salad. I'm looking forward to this one!
Edited to report that this salad was great, and I'll definitely make it again. If you're hungry for a bratwurst with all the fixings, this is it!

I just started IP, but I make my own too. I do apple cider vinegar, EVOO, water (because that's how the kinds in the packets are made ... maybe I don't need it?), Mrs. Dash onion blend, some sea salt, sometimes splenda, sometimes not.
I make my own:
EVOO
Rice vinegar (sometimes I used garlic infused)
mustard
chopped dill (I buy the squeeze tube in the produce aisle)
S&P
any other spices that look good that day
I blend it with my immersion blender and keep in the fridge. It's delicious, and very flavorful, so you don't need very much. My husband loves WF dressings, I cannot stand them!
I would LOVE to hear more ideas on dressings! I struggle almost every day not knowing how to dress up my lettuce. I am a french dressing lover and of course have had to give up on that. I recently found a decent store bought one and it is by "Maple grove Farms of Vermont". Sugar Free Raspberry Viniagrette. It has 0 fat, 1 carb, and 0 protein/ 2 Tbsp. I use it very sparingly due to the 1 carb, but I enjoy it alot on my lettuce. Keep the ideas coming!

I just had the mustard dressing. It was sooo good! It is now my favorite dressing.
