    As the name applies, this is a teriyaki sauce made with coconut aminos. It takes just a handful of ingredients and about 5 minutes to make.

    Coconut Aminos Teriyaki Sauce Recipe (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
    Coconut aminos teriyaki sauce is a much-needed condiment in any AIP kitchen. While there are some coconut amino teriyaki sauce products out there, I've found most of them are not AIP compliant and they're expensive. The good news is, it's very easy and more affordable to make your own.

    Where to Get Pasture Raised Organic Chicken

    Sourcing high-quality meats is part of the deal when it comes to doing AIP right. We always want to be on the lookout for pasture-raised, organic, hormone/antibiotic-free meats.

    For some, these may easily be found locally. If not, there are some really great online places to shop for these things.

    ButcherBox

    frozen chicken, beef, and pork in a box

    This is a great company with high standards, great-tasting meats, humanely-raised and animals. It's also very convenient. I've been using them for a little while now and really enjoying it.

    One of my favorite things about them is their flexibility. You don't have to get a box every month if it's not in the budget. You can set up delivery for every 2, 4, 6, or 8 weeks and you can skip deliveries as needed. You can also change your type of box, box size, and delivery frequency at any time to fit your needs.

    They're almost always running a promotion for free meat- sometimes with your first order, sometimes for the life of your membership. I took advantage of their free ground beef for life promo. Check out this link for the current deal. 

    Misfits Market

    I was mostly using these guys for organic produce but they've also started offering a lot of great organic meats (and even pantry items).

    They're subscription-based but it's free. You can pause your weekly order any time and you can customize your box to specifically what you want.

    You can use this link for $10 off your first order. The order minimum is only $30, so it's not a bad deal.

    Thrive Market

    Thrive Market is a membership-based online marketplace that sells thousands of discounted organic pantry items and personal care products.

    But did you know they also sell meat and seafood? They sell organic, pasture-raised chicken, grass-fed beef, and wild-caught seafood.

    It's a great place to get AIP-friendly foods in general. They've even got a filter option for the AIP diet. 

    An annual membership costs about $5/month), but they're always running promotions. These often cover the cost of the membership. Click this link to check out the current deal and Thrive Market.

    If you decide to try it out, they do offer a 30-day money-back guarantee so you can easily cancel if you decide it's not what you were looking for. 

    White Oak Pastures

    I've been using White Oak Pastures for almost a year now and they are amazing for many reasons.

    I especially love them for organ meats and bones because they have such a huge selection and their prices are fairly reasonable compared to other places I've shopped.

    Their animals are humanely raised, pasture-raised, grass-fed, etc. They're an awesome company. 

    If you decide to try them out, use the code "foodcourage" to save 15% off your first order.
