Step 1
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.

Step 2
Add pizazz by varying the spices you choose. Spices such as curry and red pepper add flavor without adding calories.
-
Step 3
Dress your salad with a mixture of your favorite spices. Dressing doesn't have to be liquid. Head to the pantry and pick out your favorite spices.
-
Step 4
Realize that you will likely make many mistakes before creating your own no-calorie salad dressing recipe. Enjoy experimenting with new combinations of spices and flavored vinegars until you discover your favorite recipe.

Step 5
Use Stevia if you don't like Splenda in the above recipe.
-
Step 6
Purchase a commercially-prepared no-calorie salad dressing if you have trouble creating your own recipe. Mimic the no-calorie salad dressing by using the same ingredients listed on the store-bought dressing.
