This salad proves that you can cook a quick, delicious meal while watching your sugar and starch intake. I used a bottled teriyaki sauce because it tastes great and only has 5 grams of sugar in a tablespoon. Because I use the sauce as a condiment, adding just a little to my salad or stir-fry, I can get away with using it.
Don’t get me wrong – I have made plenty of sugar-free teriyaki sauce in the past, but frankly, I wasn’t all that crazy about it. When I realized what a carb bargain the right sauce could be, I was sold. Incidentally, the sauce I use (available at most grocery stores, I would imagine) doesn’t contain HFCS, which is a big plus for me.
