Smoky BBQ Sauce

2 T sugar free tomato sauce

2-3 T water

1/2 t dehydrated minced onion

1/2 t red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar

1/4 t sugar free liquid smoke

1/4 t paprika

1/4 t chili powder

1/8 t cinnamon

1/8 t cloves

1/4-1/2 t sugar substitute (if needed)

salt/pepper (to taste)

1. In small non-stick saucepan, combine all ingredients and bring to boil.
   
2. Reduce heat and simmer 20 mins.

NOTE: I will often omit and add different seasonings. I sometimes add mustard, chili paste, or jalapeno juice. BBQ sauce is often a very personal thing, so experiment and see what works for you. This is just a starting point.

This makes enough for 1-2 servings.
