  Get creative. Vinegar is a great base for no-calorie salad dressing. Don't rely on plain vinegar every time. Variety is key. Try brown rice vinegar, apple cider vinegar or ume plum vinegar. Add a splash of one of these vinegars to plain vinegar. These flavored vinegars do contain 2 to 4 calories per tablespoon, but a splash added to plain vinegar will only add a nominal amount of calories.

  Add pizazz by varying the spices you choose. Spices such as curry and red pepper add flavor without adding calories.
