I'm tired with Caesar dressing...
Anything you recommend that is not too sour?

    Make your own.

    Try mixing a teaspoon of fine herbs with a tablespoon of olive oil.

    Lemon vinagrette is lovely. just squeeze a lemon and add to it a tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt. That one is lovely when you have salmon.

    I assume, with you liking Caesar dressing, that you prefer the "creamier" style of dressings as opposed to vinegar/lemon based ones.

    I like Thousand Island dressing, famed for it's association with prawn cocktails (bottled or easy to make home made), some salad cream, or a blob of mayionnaise but if I'm feeling adventurous I'll make my own version of Tzatziki:

    Small tub of greek yoghurt (low fat if preferred)
    2 inch piece of cucumber, peeled, deseeded and chopped/grated
    1 heaped tsp of mint sauce
    1 tsp sugar
    1 clove garlic
    salt to taste

    If you want a thicker Tzatziki, strain the yoghurt with muslin first, then proceed as follows

    Crush garlic, stir in sugar, mint sauce and then combine with yoghurt. Stir through the cucumber. Season with salt to taste.

    Serve drizzled with olive oil, if liked.

    I think its scrummy with ANY salad :)

    Briannas honey and mustard, avialable at Waitrose and some indipendant stores (Tesco stopped stocking it :( ), really really nice sticks to salad leaves well as well as having a good taste!

    Making your own vinaigrette is dead simple and then you can control how acidic it is, and add in what you like.

    I've only ever had salad cream on a salad... never had a salad dressing. When did you last try salad cream?

    The Pizza Express "house" salad dressing is really nice. I alternate between that and ceasar one as I also don't like too sour dressings and I like them creamy.
    It is available in supermarkets - similar price to ceasar ones.
