As I’ve mentioned before in previous blog posts, one of the main complaints many people have on a restricted diet (such as AIP) is that they start to get bored with the limited options they have for food.

How to use this Balsamic Rosemary Sauce

Alright guys (and gals), here’s the most brilliant thing about this sauce: it can be used almost anywhere. Literally. Anywhere.

Too tired to plan dinner? Just grab a meat and a veg from the store on your way home, pop it in the oven at 425°F, top with this sauce, roast a little longer and dinner is served.

What meat should you pick? Any of them. This sauce goes great with pork, beef, chicken and even fish! Mmmm salmon and balsamic rosemary sauce… brb, drooling… ?

But what veg should you pick? Again, any of them. Brussels sprouts? Broccoli? Cauliflower? Cabbage? Yup, yup, yup and yup! Any of those will work! But will it go with potatoes (if you’ve reintroduced them on AIP, or if you’re not following AIP)? Yup. Tomatoes? Affirmative. Carrots?! I guarantee you’ll love ’em!
