I need some salt free, oil free salad dressings

[greeninlosangeles]

I am trying to cut back on salt(no soy products either, please)and fat(oil especially). Do you know any delicious dressings that are light on fat and saltless. I am already dehydrating celery, lemon, tomatoes, onion and herbs for spice(I will process them into powder) instead of salt.

greeninlosangeles,

A good low fat dressing can be made for salads by blending a whole tomato with:

(1) a rib of celery and the juice of 1 orange, or
(2) a mango and lemon or lime juice, or
(3)a rib of celery, a slice of onion, and a pitted date, or
(4) some spinach and lemon or lime juice.
