STAR_EnterContestLogo_thumb13Our winner for week one of our contest is Vickie Bartlet. We asked how you would use Olive Oil instead of butter, Vickie said – use it in place of butter for garlic bread.  Vickie, expect an email from me.  I will need your postal address.

StarEVOliveOils17oz_thumb33Thanks to everyone who participated. We have another contest this week with another chance to win a Star Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Don’t forget to enter Star Flavors of the Mediterranean Recipe Contest.

Star Extra Virgin Olive Oil Giveaway

October 6, 2009 | by Diana

STAR_EnterContestLogo Star is running a Flavors of the Mediterranean Recipe Contest. They want us to see that replacing our butter in our recipes with Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a healthier choice. I received some Star Extra Virgin Olive Oil to use in my recipes in place of butter and last night I made some Dijon Cod using EVOO instead of butter to make the sauce, which worked out really well.

StarEVOliveOils17oz To promote their contest Star is sponsoring a giveaway a week for the next 4 weeks on Cookerati.  The prize is a complimentary gift pack from STAR® Fine Foods which includes a 17 oz. bottle of STAR® Extra Virgin Olive Oil and a “Taste of the Mediterranean” recipe book.
