Cause a Girl's Gotta Eat: Salmon Sandwich using Pompeian Oils

What type of oils are you using to cook with? It may be "time to change your oil" Pompeian was kind enough to send me two of their oils to try. First let me say that the amount of oil you get for the price can't be beat! The taste is great and I like how versatile they are.

Also Pompeian is challenging bloggers to CREATE OR RECREATE A RECIPE featuring Pompeian Grapeseed Oil and OlivExtra Premium Mediterranean Blend and enter to win a trip to BlogHer Food ’13. For more information on the "Time to Change Your Oil" campaign and contest, visit the Pompeian Facebook page.

Thanks to recent scientific findings, the Mediterranean diet has boosted the popularity of olive oil. And as a leader in olive oil, Pompeian wants to share another treasure of the food world - grapeseed oil. A chef secret for decades, grapeseed oil has similar health benefits to olive oil, but is even more versatile for cooking due to its light taste and high smoke point.

o Pompeian Grapeseed Oil is an all-natural cooking oil known for its high smoke point and delicate taste, characteristics that make it an ideal choice for stir-frying, deep frying, sautéing and baking.

o Pompeian Grapeseed Oil is made from 100% grapeseed oil imported from
France.
