I'm sure this is not a new tip for most of you.
Perhaps it'll just serve as a reminder.
Or perhaps you already know and do this and you can just ignore me entirely.
When ordering a salad (or making one at home) be sure to get your dressing on the side.
Whenever I pour my dressing right on the salad, 2 TBSP seems like an awfully small amount. Part of that may be because it's always crazy uneven. Some lettuce pieces will be drenched while others have none.
(Boo and hiss to crazy uneven dressing!)
I now put my dressing on the side and, before every bite, I dip my fork into the dressing.
Ta-da!
Each and every bite now has the added flavor. And the super bonus is that I don't use near as much! At first I poured myself the standard 2 TBSP serving size, but it was far too much. When I put it on the side, I'm hard pressed to even use up 1 full TBSP.
Now that's a calorie saver!
How about you? Have you tried this? Have you always done it? Or are you a fan of crazy uneven dressing?

I don't like dipping my lettuce so I put some in a tupperware, put a little of the dressing, close up the lid, and shake it all up. Repeat until the allotted amount of dressing is gone. Gets all the lettuce dressingafied for me! I love chopped salads too. Those are easy to get dressing on evenly. No more crazy uneven dressing!!
