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.
