Kraft Asian Sesame Light

I have become addicted to the stuff. I use it on salad, I make cole slaw with it, I drizzle it over fruit, I baste veggies on the grill with it, I have even marinaded chicken in it.

Yummy stuff.

I like Good Seasons Italian (comes with the cruet!) only I don't add the oil, or verrrrry little of it. I'm not tired of it yet. You can vary it up with balsamic vinegar or some other seasonings.

Salsa makes a good salad dressing.

I get the impression you are looking for something creamy and ranch-y, so no ideas from me, luckily I was always kind of grossed out by ranch/blue cheese, sour cream, mayonaisse, that kind of texture....good luck!

That stuff is amazing! If I don't have any of that left over I go for Zesty Italian.

I love Annie's Goddess dressing, but it's not exactly diet friendly. So I make a lite version of it that I found on the fatfreevegan website. Here's the recipe:

Susan's Lite Goddess Dressing

6 ounces lite firm silken tofu (1/2 pkg. of Mori-Nu)
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon tahini
2 green onions, white parts removed, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, packed
1 large clove garlic

Place all ingredients in blender and process until smooth.

Makes 10 servings of 2 tbsp. each. Per serving: 19 Calories (kcal); 1 g Total Fat; (45% calories from fat); 1 g Protein; 1 g Carbohydrate; 0 mg Cholesterol; 164 mg Sodium

Personally, I think it tastes best with 2T of tahini, but that will add a few more calories per serving. I think it's worth it for flavor.

I have always hated the creamy white type of dressings-so no blue cheese, ranch, sour cream, or any white dressings for me.

My favorites have always been the red, spicy dressings-I grew up loving Kraft Catalina dressing, and Western brand dressing...so now I use the light versions of both-the LIGHT version, NOT the fat free. The 1 or 2 grams of fat really make the flavor much better, and your body actually needs some fat to process some of the nutrients in the greens.
