Spray-On Salad Dressing

Many a healthy salad has been ruined by adding too much dressing. A serving size is only supposed to be two tablespoons. Most of us end up pouring on dressing, drizzling it (which seems to me a fancier way of pouring) or dipping into a dollop on the side. However you apply salad dressing, the chances are, you use too much.

Here's a neat low-fat option that might just help: by using a pump spray, three products -- Wish-Bone Salad Spritzers, Newman's Own Salad Mist, and Ken's Lite Accents -- allow you to control how much dressing you add to your salad. At one calorie per spritz or spray, and 10 calories—or 10 sprays—to dress one cup of salad, this seems an ideal way to add flavor to your salad with very little fat. All three products, which come in similar-looking 7-ounce bottles, would make worthy additions to your refrigerator.
