What is some good sauce or flavour to add to plain meals

[BrosephStalin69]

I'm cutting so I dont want sugar in sauce but all sauce seems to have sugar and other crap

[ibanezam]

Try using different spices. They add tons of flavor for barely any calories. Also, salsa is a good option

Why no sugar

Use some Pace salsa, tastes delicious and if you need some more heat, add some Tapatio hot sauce, both are pretty inexpensive.

I don't understand the irrational fear of sugar but there is plenty of stuff to add to food that adds very little calories. I don't know how I lived before I discovered franks red hot and sriracha sauce, there's also other hot sauces. Also, plain spices (pepper, salt, onion powder etc) or pre-mixed spices, grinder spices and rubs. Salsa is good too.

Why no sugar

I'll assume OP understands that carbs = carbs no matter where they come from, so I will answer the question for him.

Sugar doesnt fill you up, and simply adds calories to whatever dish you are making. If you are cutting, you would most likely want to use those calories on something else.

Ex. you use 100 calories of sauce, which has 20g of sugar in it. If you take out the 20g of sugar, you now have a 20 calorie sauce and have the same satiety.

But OP is red so who knows if he thought it through beyond "Sugar is bad."

If my post doesnt make sense i'll try to clarify.

I am under the impression that OP believes sugar "goes straight to the belly".

Another vote for Sriracha hot sauce. It has a good amount of kick, but still adds a very good flavor.

I add franks red hot/tapatio to almost every meal I eat. Tastes great and has a good kick to it.

Italian Salad Dressing, 15kcal per tbsp

Tabasco, soy sauce, garlic & low fat/calorie sauces will do wonders.
