this recipe serves 8 so one cup of oil- about 250 mls is only about 30 mls per person which aint a great deal for an occasional treat. it's not like you would eat this salad every day!

Use your imagination.
You can make your own dressing with a lot less oil, and normal rice instead of risono pasta.
that would be less calories. and of course no sugar. I never put sugar in anything.
