Our fresh, housemade sauces are what really make the difference in making you feel energized and uplifted when eating at Life Alive. Our secret is pretty simple: our chefs scratch-prepare fresh sauces and dressings in house using whole, clean ingredients.
What you’ll find in our sauces & dressings:
✅ Organic cold pressed extra virgin olive oil as the base of most sauces
✅ Aquafaba for a creamy texture without dairy in others
✅ A drizzle of toasted sesame oil for authentic flavor in select recipes
✅ A mindful use of salt
✅ A mindful use of natural sweeteners like honey, agave & maple
✅ Real, whole ingredients like lemons, limes, garlic, fresh herbs & spices
What you won’t find:
❌ Industrially processed seed oils (though we don’t condemn seed oils altogether—read our stance on seed oils in our latest blog “Oils: Unfiltered”
❌ Preservatives
❌ Gums, stabilizers or thickeners
❌ Excessive added sugar
❌ Excessive sodium
❌ Gluten
