I also make my own:

Balsamic vinegar
honey
dijon mustard
hint of garlic

Marie’s Blue Cheese is superb.

I came here to say this. Gotham Greens in the produce section is the BEST. Whole Foods brand version is not as good.

I was so happy to find this at the grocery store last week.

For taco/southwest salads I mix mayo (usually homemade) and salsa together for the dressing.

Agree -- this one is very good.

DP. I love it as a marinade for grilled vegetables in the summer, especially summer squash.

I like Brianna's poppy seed dressing on a salad with kale, strawberries (or a dried fruit like cranberries), goat cheese, and sunflower seeds. Yum!

I'm a salad connoisseur, lol. I've literally studied the history of salad dressing (weird, I know). Generally speaking, bottled dressings are pretty bad -- just full of cheap oil and sugar. I just pour a bit of evoo and vinegar into a ramekin with some s&p, honey, and dijon and mix it up.

As far as a good bottled dressing goes, I do like Annie's Goddess dressing. You can definitely get it at Whole Foods, and maybe Giant as well. But you will only like it if you like the taste of tahini.

Pail Newman's Raspberry Walnut

Girard’s Champagne Vinagrette

I like Bolthouse Farm's blue cheese and casear dressings.

and I really like white balsamic. I make my own so I don't have a brand, but now I am going to go try

White balsmaic with shredded spinach, some fruit, nuts, and goat cheese is one of my favorite salads.

I like Marie's White Balsamic Shallot it is a creamy white dressing. It is in the refrigerated section of salad dressings but not all stores have it. Sometimes I find it at Safeway but rarely at Giant.

My fave creamy one is Green Goddess - not sure which bottled brand is best though.

On the advice of my doctor, I am trying to eat more leafy greens. This is not for weight loss, but for glaucoma. I've been cooking greens, but am getting a bit sick of that plus I feel like a salad is easier to do daily.

I'm looking to hear what salad dressings others like. I'm more interested in something that tastes good, so I can develop a long-term habit, than worrying about finding the healthiest option out there. I tend to prefer slightly sweet and/or creamy dressings. I've tried several, just looking for other ideas to try.
