To season the salads one must use vinegar, lemon juice, as well as one can add herbs like oregano or thyme, because they are great ingredients to give flavor without adding calories in the salad. You can also use olive oil for seasoning, but you need to be careful about the amount because olive oil is a fat and has calories, so in a salad dish you can use 2 teaspoons of olive oil to season.
