No salad without a dressing! Your salad does not have to swim in oil, but serving a salad without a fat containing dressing is not quite right either. The body can absorb fat soluble vitamins only when foods containing such vitamins are accompanied by fats.
Always make your own dressing and use healthy fats when making one.
