When buying dressing at the market,
always
read labels very carefully. Even those labeled "light" or "reduced-fat" can contain tons of fat and calories.
At a restaurant? Play it safe and go with a drizzle of olive oil (for those healthy fats) and some vinegar or a squirt of lemon. You can also carry low-cal dressing packets in your purse, or request some of the awesome alternatives listed here!
