How to make Low-fat peanut sauce

In all honesty, making any salad low-fat is not very difficult. You can still make a delicious salad dressing without all the added calories of using oil. For this low-fat peanut sauce, it will take no more than 2 minutes and tastes amazing!

Instead of using peanut butter, we are going to substitute that with a peanut butter powder. I love PB Fit but use any peanut butter powder that you can find.

Very simply, you are going to add the peanut butter powder, coconut aminos, soy sauce, garlic powder, siracha, vinegar, and lime juice into a small bowl and mix together. Alternatively, you can add it into a small container with a lid and shake. That’s it! It’s super easy to whip up and tastes great on so many salads. If you are trying to stay completely gluten-free, omit the soy sauce or sub using tamari or more coconut aminos.
