I do have some strawberries, grapes, blueberries, tomatoes, and lettuce..just to name some on-hand ingredients. I would like to make a healthy side salad to go with some grilled chicken. Does anyone have any relatively simple salad and salad dressing recipes? I prefer a dressing recipe without oil (if that is possible). Thank you.

oil-free dressings
easy.
1 part balsamic vinegar
3 parts apple juice
shallots and chopped fresh herbs
Salt and pepper to taste.
-or-
1 part Fat free buttermilk
3 parts Fat free sour cream
garlic and onion powder
dried oregano
fresh thyme and parsley
Salt and pepper to taste.
-or-
1 peeled and seeded cucumber, then pureed
2 cups Fat free plain yogurt
2oz lemon juice
chopped fresh herbs
Salt and pepper to taste.
for simpler ideas…
try fresh salsa, chilled marinara,
sweet chili sauce, sweet n sour sauce,
and Asian Plum Sauce.
or instead of dairy products
substitute fat-free mayonnaise (but i dont like the taste).
do you need more….

It is but it wont be the same. However a good one I like is 2 tbsp of lemon juice (fresh is best), 1/2 tsp dill, 1 of salt, 1 of pepper, and 1/2 of garlic.
