Salad dressing on the side PLEASE

Disclosure: This post may contain referral/affiliate links.

Lately I have been finding myself using more than one serving of salad dressing so by having it on the side of my salad has made me more aware of my intake.

Today’s Tip:  Ask for your salad dressing on the side

You can save yourself some calories by asking for dressing on the side of your salad instead of directly on your salad.  However you still need to be careful with the portion size of those cups of salad dressing restaurants give because they are way more than a serving but that way YOU can control it instead of someone else.  A normal size serving of salad dressing is usually 2 tablespoons so be cautious of your salad dressing intake.

In my recent post on how to build a healthy salad we are sharing our favorite salad ingredients.  Come on by and share if you haven’t already.

When it comes to salad dressings, what is your favorite?  If you have any healthy salad dressing tips or recipes, please share!

    Not only do I ask for dressing on theside, but I ‘ve forced myself to use a fork to spread the dressing rather than pouring or dipping. I think it’s alighted touch.

    It’s amazing how our habits start to slack off at times. This is one I have to check myself with often.

    I actually dip the tines lightly in the dressing and then grab my salad. I’ve found that works best for me so I don’t use more than I want to.
