So this Tasty Tuesday is all about salad dressings! So Last week I joined Weight Watchers to try and shift the weight and have a better quality of life and so far its going good! So my problem with salad is I hate it lol no really I hate it unless its covered in dressing so it no longer tastes like salad. So I had to search the Internet for some Low Cal Salad Dressings so that I could have the salad and not eat a million calories in dressings :) So I found a few on cooks.com that I found delicious so without further ado here we go...
