Island Teriyaki Sauce

Island Teriyaki Sauce

We gave this teriyaki sauce a bit of a health makeover. It’s so easy to make and so much better than store-bought. Seriously, you will wonder why you were buying bottled.

Teriyaki sauce is typically higher in sugar. Our health makeover uses coconut sugar to improve blood sugar response while also adding some flavorful and nutrient-dense ingredients.

What the dietiTians love about this recipe:

Coconut Sugar: a great sweetener that does not spike blood sugar.

Sesame Seeds: a source of healthy fats and helps to control blood sugar.

Garlic: amazing for its anti-inflammatory properties!

Ginger: a great spice that influences genes to reduce oxidation and inflammation in the body.

How to Use it:

This teriyaki sauce makes a great marinade for your favorite protein such as chicken, tofu or salmon. It also works as a sauce, combine it with protein, vegetables, and a small portion of noodles or rice for a balanced meal.
