Light French Dressing

Light French Dressing

EverydaySweetened

Light French Dressing is a reduced-calorie version of the classic tomato-based salad dressing, characterized by its sweetened profile and thinner consistency compared to regular varieties. It achieves lower fat content by replacing a portion of oil with water or thickeners, though this often increases added sugars to maintain its signature tangy-sweet flavor. While popular for dressing salads or marinating proteins, its nutritional balance makes it particularly relevant for users monitoring fat intake but requiring awareness of sugar content.
