This Whole30 Teriyaki Sauce is the perfect Whole30 condiment. Naturally sweetened with dates, it's sweet and salty as well as soy free, gluten free, and only five ingredients! It’s easy to make, and will be a great addition to stir fry, chicken, and salmon!
I love that I can throw this sauce together in under ten minutes and add it to any piece of protein and veggies….. dinner done!
It’s full of flavor, thick, and so much yummier than what you will find in the store that’s filled with questionable ingredients!

Is Teriyaki Sauce Gluten Free?
Unless specifically noted, most store bought soy sauce and teriyaki sauce contains wheat, thus containing gluten.
This teriyaki sauce is not only free from gluten, but is soy-free as well, using coconut aminos is place of soy sauce.
What is coconut aminos?
Coconut aminos is made from fermented sap of coconut palm that is then blended with sea salt.
Because of its consistency and salty taste, it makes the perfect alternative to soy sauce with far less sodium, no gluten, and no soy.
