French Salad Dressing

Submitted by CIOUID

This recipe is adapted from one found on www.smittenkitchen.com. Makes 8 servings of 1 cup each. The ingredients are approximate, there is no need to be precise with this. Pretty much just add everything to taste! (This is also great as a salsa like dip for light tostito chips!) For more visual effect, use 1 green pepper and 1 each of red, orange, and yellow.

French classic. A warm bacon vinegrette served over crispy greens. Pretty enough for a dinner party or great as a main with crusty bread for a summer supper.

Great salad even for professed non-broccoli eaters like me. 2 points per serving.

This uses light mayonnaise and horseradish for a little extra zing. I'm guessing on the serving size, but I think it's about half a cup.

Nummy on lots of things and it gives salads some zip. I don't need as much dressing with this because it has such a strong flavor.

Use this marinade with boneless skinless chicken breast cut into strips or chunks. After it is cooked, the chicken can be used as chicken fajitas in a tortilla, in a quesadilla, or put on top of a salad. You add the toppings of your choice.

I borrowed this from another Spark People recipe. This is listed as 8 servings. In actuality you use half of it to marinade the chicken, then throw that part away. You use the other half to evenly baste 4 servings of chicken breast while cooking it.

Original Fajita Marinade by Robbie Rice, usually labeled "lo-cal" or Chili's Fajitas in recipe books.

Can Substitute 1 pound of sirloin for chicken.

"Vanilla extract" usually isn't made with real vanilla. The good news is that it's really easy--and affordable--to make your own.

Forget buying packets of seasonings. They're expensive and often full of salt. Save sodium and money by making this easy herb blend. Use it in sauces, soups, stews, on meats... anywhere you want to add Italian flavor without fat or sodium!

My light creamy pesto mixes the best of two favorite (high-calorie) Italian sauces--Alfredo and pesto Genovese. Traditional pesto has 150 calories and 13 grams of fat per serving. This version has 89 calories and 7.7 grams of fat.

Spruce up any salad with this creamy dressing! It's spicy but not at all hot! Drizzle over salads, grilled chicken or fish. Use in place of sour cream on tacos or use as base for a pasta salad.

This is cheese dip--without the cheese! The secret ingredient? Nutritional yeast.
