Mazola Summer Grilling Gift Package {Rafflecopter Giveaway}

My regular Readers know how much Hubby and I love to grill. The weather is just too hot here in Georgia to be heating up the oven, stirring pots and pans and fussing in the kitchen.  So we try  to keep things simple when the weather heats up by firing up the grill as much as possible.  Our meals aren’t boring by any means.  Hubby tosses his meats on the grill, I’ve got veggies cooking on there, I experiment with different kinds of potatoes and recently I even tried grilling watermelon for the first time.  Can you say yum?

I was Blessed to receive a Mazola Summer Grilling Gift Package for review!

INCLUDES

• Bottle of Mazola Corn Oil – 40 oz bottle of 100% pure Mazola Corn Oil to use in your favorite recipes.
• Weber Spices & Seasonings – I received Chipotle Marinade, Black Peppercorn Marinade and my favorite White & Herb.  Use to season meat, chicken fish and veggies!
• Five-piece Bamboo Cutting Board Set – This is the neatest cutting board I have ever seen!  I’m such a nut about food safety and cross contamination.  You just can’t be too careful when cutting chicken then proceeding onto vegetables or fruits.  No need to worry with this innovative cutting board.  The colored pieces you see above are actually individual color-coded cutting boards that slide into the bamboo board.  When you’re preparing a whole meal you don’t have to stop and disinfect between foods.  Just place the board you need on top of the bamboo board and chop chop chop!  When your done just slide them all inside for storage.
• Silicone Tongs Set that is safe up to 500° F -  One large, one small.

I always use olive oil or canola oil for my cooking.  I haven’t used corn oil ever, but I learned a few facts that I thought I would share with you courtesy of my friends at Mazola.  Adding Mazola Corn Oil helps lycopene (found in tomatoes) and other fat soluble nutrients absorb better in the body, and corn oil contains plant sterols, which help block cholesterol. While corn oil tends to get a bad rap, it contains more cholesterol-blocking plant sterols than any other cooking oil, with four times as many sterols as olive oil and 40% more than canola oil.

Mazola^® cooking oils are made of 100% pure oil with no additives, so the flavor of my food shines through.  There’s no greasy, oily taste and yes, All Mazola^® oils are cholesterol free!  I’m enjoying Mazola Corn Oil in moderation (just like all oils) and I think you will too!

Watermelon is one of my favorite fruits!  Seems we’re eating it almost daily!  Here’s a unique way to serve this red-ripe, juicy summertime favorite; courtesy of David Grotto, RD
