My Homemade Sauce Recipes start with simple ingredients you may already have in your pantry. These versions are better for you, made with less sugar, no MSG, artificial colors, or preservatives, and can be made allergy-friendly.

The problem with many store-bought condiments and sauces is the excess sugar and artificial ingredients. Back when I was writing my ​Superfoods Nourishing Bowl Cookbook​, I came to realize that homemade sauces are the key to making healthy food shine. Prepare a few different kinds so you have them on hand to use throughout the week.
