Yuck to the stuff on the shelf! I always make my own. It is easy. Just mix olive oil and balsamic vinegar. SECRET => buy quality olive oil and vinegar.
I'm lazy - Primal Kitchen has a range of avocado oil dressings (they are pricey) and Whole Foods has some made with olive oil (I like the romano cheese vinaigrette).
Primal Kitchen makes their dressings with avocado oil. I make my own with olive oil, herbs and raw vinegar.
Primal Kitchen makes great salad dressings with avocado oil, and I recently found some California Olive Ranch dressings that only have olive oil in them.
Look at the recipes in The Mastering Diabetes plan. Low fat plant based whole foods.
Unless you are looking for a particular flavor, what about making your own? Very simple - oil of your choice, good quality vinegar of your choice plus seasonings of your choice, shake and refrigerate. Or even simpler, a small drizzle of oil on your salad, followed by a shake of seasonings and vinegar to taste. Here is just one example, but you can find thousands on line
Peeled garlic clove in a bottle, add 1/4 cup high quality oil, a grind of fresh pepper, a grind of sea salt, 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon of dried herbs (I like rosemary, basil & oregano) and about 1/2 cup of good balsamic vinegar or red wine vinegar. Shake vigorously now, refrigerate, an shake vigorously before using.
Have you though about making your own dressings?
