In one of my recent episodes of “This or That” I shared with you a sweet yet spicy, homemade BBQ sauce. If your goal is to lower your added sodium through condiments, give this one a try:
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 teaspoons crushed garlic
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 can low sodium tomato sauce
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons molasses
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon each of paprika, chilli powder, ground pepper
¼ teaspoon each of cayenne pepper, cinnamon
Whisk all of the ingredients into a saucepan, bring to a slow boil and reduce heat, stirring for 3-5 minutes. Cool, and store for up to 5 days in a jar with a lid in your refrigerator. Enjoy!
