3 Fat Free Sauces Perfect For Any Meal! (Vegan & Gluten Free)

I think sauces can make any meal taste great! Store bought sauces can be expensive, full of low quality ingredients and it's easy to run out of them. So this is why I love making my own at home. Today I'm making 3 delicious fat free sauces that can be paired with just about anything. I don't usually make fat free sauces like this, but since summer is coming and i've been working on leaning out a bit, being able to dump a bunch of delicious sauce on my food without a ton of extra calories is really helpful.

Let me know what you think of the sauces in the comments down below!

Best (non-sweet) fat free sauce: bean cooking liquid very flavorful, thick and delicious, change my mind

[MeandOliviaGrace]

Oh wow! I was just wishing for some interesting fat free dressings. I’m down almost 30 pounds. Reducing my fat intake and going plant based has really helped me reach my goals. I love your other recipes too. Thank you so much!

[nickdevirgiliis]

Man i love that you drop the time stamps in there. Thank you

[SirPhytone]

Love that you do so many gluten free recipes as well as vegan! Thanks as always 😊

7:55 "a little shredded carrot from the death machine" lmao 😅😅

[TarotandWitchery]

I love jicama diced, with salted black beans, corn, doced cilantro, and lime juice, chilled. Its great by itself or on bowls.

[kathymctaggart]

Made your Red Pepper sauce last night which got approval from my non-vegan husband! This is the 1st sauce he has given approval and believe me I’ve tried several! Did not have basil on hand so threw in leftover cilantro and jalapeño to the blender. Delicious if you like spicy!!! Can’t wait to try your other 2 sauces ❤

[sintiasmith]

I love jicama with chile lime from Trader Joe’s, you can also find some jicama wraps at Trader Joe’s

[NguyenVinhHang]

[msjahnvip]

A few years back you came out with a similar video of 3 fat free sauces that I have been making ever since, love it that you added three more to the arsenal. Game changer! Thank you 😊

[cynthiaeklund]

[karen]

Oh yeah!!! First sauce/bowl sounds perfect!!! I’ve been wanting an Asian inspired dressing that wasn’t a peanut butter and soy sauce combo. OMG! ❤

[roli]

jicama with a squeeze of lime juice - yum

again - thanks for the written recipes

[Fahad-]

Having good tasting sauces is the key to making this whole food plant-based life tasty and sustainable

[MsHendrix]

The "death machine" 😂😂😂 I have killed quite a few knuckles with it! Love all your videos and thanks for all your wonderful content ❤

[samatronn]

Great to have someone fresh (with high quality videos) on the scene. At least you are fresh and new to me!

[aubreesorteberg]

[melrox]
