5 Low Fat Salad Dressing Ideas
It is important to remember that not all salad dressings are the same. Some are high in fat and can put a lot of weight on you. Others are lower in fat, but can still be high in calories. Some dressings are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which can be a great addition to your diet.
