French vinaigrette!!! (o; Good stuff and good olive oil as well.
By the way it's not only the fat you have to watch, it's also the sugar (carbs) in those dressings.... They can easily get up to 200 extra calories!

I just use some lemon and herbs on my salads. Works fine as well.

Apple cider vinegar and olive oil. Apple cider vinegar is reknowned in the fat burning arena, let alone tastes good. (In my opinion)

Hot sauce is great! I use it on everything(except salad!) LOL...I thought your post was about salad dressing. The fat in olive oil is monosaturated, very healthy for you, very well known for actually changing your cholesterol ratio, much more important than the overall number. The media has many people totally brainwashed against all fat. This is not the case. Saturated fats, yes, stay away from. Fats are a whole nother topic. If you are interested, there are some great posts in here about it. Do a search. A great website for great info is www.barleans.com. Click on information.
