Once we decided that sugar and vinegar were no longer foods we wished to put into our bodies, the search was on to find dressings and sauces that omitted both of these ingredients. After months of looking for pre-made sauces it was time to make my own.
I started with a ketchup recipe as my son will eat anything that has sauce on it! I make this in much smaller quantities as it will only last for about a week in the fridge and this reciepe is far too much for one little man to eat!
