Healthy healing foods do not have to be plain. Healing foods should be fun, exciting, and full of flavor. But making food at home from scratch can be time-consuming. I love these healthy no-cook sauces because….

• Minimal ingredients required
• Some use only fresh ingredients and others are from pantry stales, meaning you always have options
• 6 of the 7 are ready in less than 5 minutes making them perfect for weeknight dinners
• Each sauce is versatile in its own way; ranging from doubling as a salad dressing to converting into a bowl of soup with the addition of bone broth
• All the sauces can be made ahead and keep in the fridge for up to a week with proper storage... meal prep perfection
