It doesn’t take much to derail a day of clean eating. An additional tablespoon of almond butter here, an extra splash of coffee creamer there. A heavy hand when it comes to condiments can be a silent saboteur that is often dismissed.

When it comes to sushi, stir fry or a simple marinade soy sauce is a go-to. Substitute any brand (regardless of sodium levels) with liquid aminos. The same flavorful taste sans preservatives, alcohol and gluten.

Try anyone of these brands, and hold the guilt.

Bragg’s Liquid Aminos

Coconut Secret

Nama Shoyu

I love using Bragg’s Liquid Aminos as a marinade for chicken breasts or thighs. Add a few cloves of garlic and let sit for 15 minutes before roasting or grilling as you usually would. Pair with a side of steamed zucchini and you’ve got yourself a meal!
