Oil-sessed!

Basically I find an oil I like and then I use it on everything. My latest obsessions are organic extra virgin coconut oil, lemon oil, garlic oil, and white truffle oil.

So what the heck am I doing with all these oils?

Let's start with the coconut oil-with this I am making cookies, pasta, rice dishes, tacos, and my husband even cooked hashbrowns with it. It even tastes amazing spread on toast. Try it!!!

Lemon oil-no it doesn't taste like pledge. This is great on asparagus or drizzled on some baked feta cheese.

Garlic oil-I use this on my pizza, pasta, bread, or veggies. Or any Italian food for that matter.

Truffle oil-OMG! This is the most delicious decadent stuff. I make mouthwatering fries with this, pizza, bruschetta and it even goes on my popcorn.

I recently acquired a bottle of basil oil, I betcha can't wait to see what that goes on???
