Most herbs and spices also have very few calories in their usual amounts. Our last Indian meal included a salad that consisted of some lettuce leaves, big spears of cucumber, and a few other bits all generously dusted with some blend of spices. (We didn't get the name of the masala, but I imagine many different ones would work similarly.) The powder stuck to the damp vegetables very well, and contrasted spectacularly with hot/dry against cold/wet. That probably added no more than 5 calories, compared to the usual salad dressings. If you want to avoid boredom in a healthy diet, herbs and spices are your friends, and don't be afraid to use them in unexpected ways.
