Bang Bang Sauce

Adding a flavorful sauce like this to vegetables is a great way to encourage eating more veggie servings, which means getting more vitamins and minerals. A lot of sauces you’ll find in take out and restaurant foods are prepared with a whole lot of sugar and sodium. When you make sauces at home, you can can better control what goes into your sauce and you’ll quickly find that creating a really delicious sauce or dressing doesn’t require all that sugar and salt!

We love this Bang Bang Sauce in our Bang Bang Halloumi Bowls.
