Better than Peanut Satay is my Cashew Satay Sauce. Not only is it tasty but it is gluten-free, grain-free, and refined sugar-free and unbelievably comes in at 60 calories and 4 grams of carbs a serving.
Information:
My dietary restrictions don’t allow peanuts, gluten or grains. After mulling it over I was inspired to try an create a Satay sauce with cashews. Soy sauce is in almost every Asian sauce I can think of. Were you aware that Coconut Aminos are the best substitute for Soy Sauce as it contains no grains or gluten? Not to mention the fact that the flavor beyond amazing. It is necessary to have fresh lime juice and grated ginger as these are the major flavor enhances to this sauce.
OMG!! This sauce is so luxurious, creamy, flavorful and tasty. My picky eater had three helpings and asked if there were leftovers the following day. Unfortunately, there were not any as it disappeared. My husband even licked his plate clean.
Personal Life:
My belief is that there is more good in the world than bad. There are wonderful terrific people wherever you go. It is my hope that I can encourage a wave of random acts of kindness. My challenge to my readers is to try and do 1 RAK (random act of kindness each day in February. Most importantly it would be fun to make them anonymous if possible. Keep in mind they can be inexpensive. For example, paying for someone’s parking meter, placing a quarter into a candy machine, taping a dollar bill to a soda or vending machine. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could create a wave of Random Acts of Kindness?
Ingredient Notes:
Coconut aminos are a wonderful substitute for soy sauce. Black sesame oil is a deeper sesame flavor. In my humble opinion, Coconut Vinegar has a more similar flavor to rice vinegar. Please note these are the ingredients I used in the recipe below. However, you should always choose ingredients that you prefer and always read food labels.
This sauce is great over my Chicken Stir-Fry.
