Healthy Sauces | How Do Our Skinny Sauces Compare ? - theskinnyfoodco

With New Year's Eve around the corner, many of us will be celebrating the new year at family parties or dinner parties enjoying tasty treats and buffet-style nibbles, and when it comes to party food there always has to be sauces! Whether you're a ketchup fan, or like a smokey BBQ, sauces make the buffet-food complete. 

But unfortunately, dipping sauces, salad dressings and creamy sauces are always so high in sugar and calories! To make sure your sauces are healthy this New Year's Eve, We've compiled the perfect comparison list of our Skinny Food Co Sauces that will work well with your favourite snacks that are far healthier than traditional store-bought sauces.
