Our Top Three Sugar-Free Organic Sauces and Salad Dressings
Posted by Simple Girl on 8th Aug 2017
Sugar is the devil. We all know it, even if we don't know it know it. Mom's been telling us since we were kids that eating candy makes us fat, and sugar rots our teeth. Nowadays, it's hard to throw a rock at a medical journal and not hit yet another study about the negative effects of eating too much sugar. It feeds candida yeast! It promotes wrinkles! It contributes to diabetes! And cancer! And heart problems, and obesity, and ulcers, and gallstones, hypoglycemia, eczema, arthritis, osteoporosis, and more.
Added sugar is the worst. It's in dang near every processed food you can buy in the supermarket. Did you know that the American Heart Association recommends that women consume no more than 24 grams–just six teaspoons–of sugar each day? A single can of Coca Cola contains a mind-blowing 39 grams of sugar. Thirty-nine grams! And a bowl of wholesome Honey Nut Cheerios contains 12 grams of sugar, half of your daily allowance. For breakfast!
Ahem. Anyway, cutting sugar wherever you can is one of the wisest choices you can make for your health, and condiments are a good place to start. Just two measly tablespoons of Bull's Eye Brown Sugar & Hickory BBQ Sauce contain a whopping 14 grams of sugar, and two tablespoons of a typical olive oil vinaigrette contains three.
To make it easier for you to go organic and sugar-free, we stock a variety of sugar-free condiments made from natural, high quality ingredients. And to help you decide which to try first, we'll let you in some of our employee’s top 3 favorites!
Simple Girl Organic Carolina Kick BBQ Sauce
Artificial sweeteners can make barbecue sauce taste a bit sickly, and just when tomato-based sauce seems to be the only decent substitute, along comes this delicious, sweet and smoky, tangy and savory sauce made with stevia, spices, and other flavors. You'd be hard-pressed to find another barbecue sauce that has just five calories per serving paired with a complex, robust flavor. Carolina's your man. Plus, it’s been the #1 selling BBQ sauce on Amazon.com since Jan of 2016!
Simple Girl Organic, Sugar-Free Citrus Ginger Salad Dressing & Marinade
This mouth-watering dressing is made with organic stevia, so it has a glycemic index of zero. One serving has just three calories, and it is gluten-, fat- and carb-free. The delicious citrusy flavor balances out the more robust ginger flavor for an Asian-inspired dressing that goes great with a salad of dark leafy greens, mandarin slices, and almond slivers. It can also be used as a marinade for chicken or tofu if you're feeling like getting out the wok and creating a delicious stir-fry.
Simple Girl Organic, Sugar-Free Sweet Mustard Salad Dressing & Marinade
Nothing tastes more like heaven than a mess of roasted potatoes sprinkled with sea salt and dipped in a little bowl of our sweet mustard salad dressing. Don't believe it? Try it for yourself. Or, just slather this three-calorie-per-serving dressing over a salad with greens, fresh mushrooms, and crisp snow peas and enjoy the rich, tangy flavor made with organic ingredients and a little miracle known as stevia.
It was hard picking just three favorites, but we promise that any one of our bottled condiments can help you make healthier choices in the kitchen. So, hop on and grab a bottle today!
