In celebration of American Heart Month, Mazola oil has created some delicious recipes to share with you. This one looks so good, I bought the ingredients and I’ll be making it tomorrow!
Not only is corn oil versatile (it’s best when used in heated applications, like baking, sauteing and stir frying) it also contains plant sterols. Studies indicate, when consumed as part of a diet in low saturated fat and cholesterol, plant sterols can help reduce the absorption of cholesterol in the gut, which can lower LDL cholesterol. In facr, corn oil has four times as many plant sterols as olive oil and 40 percent more than canola oil, making it a great addition to a heart-healthy meal!
Mazola has been in business for over 100 years! It has been a staple in my home since I was a kid. One of the best things about corn oil is its high heat point. You can cook at a higher temperature than most other oils. And when you cook at higher temperatures, your food absorbs less of the cooking oil. I’ve used Mazola in baking, broiling, grilling and frying and I like its nice fresh taste. It’s good to know that it is also good for my heart.

I started Nicole's Nickels in February 2009 to bring all of the great deals I was finding to my friends and family and then it took off! Since then I've continued my full-time day job as an attorney while blogging in the evenings and on weekends. Nicole's Nickels has evolved into a site that lets you know about great new products and services! I help my clients during the days at the non-profit I work for and then my Nicole's Nickels readers learn about the best new products for their families! I live in south/central Florida and have 2 cute dogs (see their picture under "mascots") and an amazing husband who has a spunky 6 year old we get to spend a lot of time with. I hope you'll take the time to

Salmon is my fish of choice, so I enjoy trying new recipes. I’ve tried honey mustard, but not honey lemon – sounds delicious. Thanks for sharing.
I have used Mazola for years. I like that it is a healthy oil. I did not know that I can get heart healthy recipes from them. I am going to check out their great recipes.
This recipe looks great! Salmon is my favorite
