Bragg’s Liquid Aminos Soy Sauce Alternative – Recipes and Review
Recently I had been seeing a lot of meal preppers using Bragg’s Liquid Aminos All Purpose Seasonings in their meals. I had never tried it before but have seen it often and decided to finally take the plunge and purchase it. Bragg’s as a brand is usually found in the organic section of most grocery stores or easily found in Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s. Bragg’s smells like a soy sauce but it isn’t terribly overpowering on your food and does not use table salt so it’s not high in sodium. If you find it is a bit salty to your taste you can dilute it with some water. The first time I used Bragg’s Liquid Aminos was in a really delicious stir fry I made with green peppers, green beans, asparagus, red bell peppers and grilled chicken. It turned out amazing and I couldn’t wait to start using this in more of my recipes to liven up my food and especially my chicken dishes! I literally now “put that $%*! on everything” lol.
Why are aminos important? Aminos acids will also help in the repair and growth of muscles when taken in conjunction with your workout. Essential amino acids are not produced naturally by your body and must come from food sources.

Bragg’s Liquid Aminos has no calories so while you shouldn’t use the entire bottle you can use a few table spoons and not worry about the calories that you would have to worry about with marinades like terrayaki which can be hundreds if you aren’t careful.
You can also use this when you order sushi as a substitute for soy sauce which I did and thoroughly enjoyed it, especially knowing this was so much better for me than any of those other soy sauces found in the restaurant or take out places.
