Will using extra virgin olive oil as a dressing for my salad everyday fatten me?!
Question: Olive oil is good for you but it depends on how much you're using. If you're using a tablespoon or more, then yes, it will probably add some weight but if you're using only a teaspoon for a very large salad, you should be ok!

depends how much you put on i guess haha
there is a lot of saturated fat in extra virgin olive oil...its okay if you only use like one tablespoon or two. i recommend buying a natural low fat dressing. if you like olive oil dressings i'm assuming you also add vinegar? i personally love annie's naturals dressings... (there website : http://www.consorzio.com/catalog/organic... ). or if you are concerned about saving money and want to make your own healthy salad dressings here's another website with tons of options!
