Probably Fuhrman would say anything except animal products (no butter, no cheese products, . . ..but then even he breaks his own rules.
He would also say something low fat.
In the back of the book he has a list of low/no fat commercially available dressing that come to 20 calories a serving. They are basically vinaigrettes.

He has a few recipes for salad dressings. Here are two.

Zesty Tomato-Garlic Dressing
1/2 cup tomato or tomato vebetable juice
2 tsp lemon
1 tsp Italian seasoning
3 oz low fat tofu (optional)
Blend together



Thousand Lost Island Dressing
2 hard boiled egg whites
1/2 cupt chopped celery, cucumber, or chopped steamed string beans
1/2 tsp onion powder
3 tbsp ketchup
1 tbsp nonfat plain yogurt
1/2 cup chopped red pepper
Blend together



Hubby makes a kind of sauce with a mixture of water, organic molasses, wheat free soy sauce, and little bit of oil -- the results are a little bit like a stir fry.

I used to put cold spaghetti sauce on microwaved broccoli when I was single. That was one of my favorite diet foods.
