The secret ingredient in this killer guacamole is extra virgin olive oil! Though olive oil is not traditionally used in guacamole, EVOO will make your guacamole creamier and richer.
Instead of chips, or store bought pita chips, try this recipe for homemade pita chips. They are crunchy and will satisfy your cravings for chips. They are also a great vehicle for salsa or hummus.
Olive oil and butter don't have to be enemies! They actually work quite well together in this recipe for garlic bread. Most of the fat comes from the olive oil, but a small amount of butter is added for flavor making this recipe a little more heart healthy.
