I try to eat a lot of salad, and despise lo-cal dressing (except for a very few).
One trick a nutritionist friend taught me is to order your dressing on the side.
Then, don't pour it on your salad, or even dunk your bite of salad in it. Instead, dip your fork in the dressing, then pick up your bite of salad.
Somehow, doing it that way makes the dressing the last thing to leave the fork, and deposits it right on your taste buds.
It seems like you have plenty of dressing on your salad, but you'll find that you only actually eat a teaspoon full or so.
Every once in awhile, I forget...but when I do it this way I'm always pleasantly surprised at how little dressing I can use and still enjoy the salad.
