You don't always have to substitute plain EVOO. Depending on what you're making, one of our flavored olive oils can add another layer of flavor at the same time.

Try Tuscan Herb, Garlic, Chipotle, or another favorite olive oil for:

• Grilled cheese
• Garlic bread
• Savory baking
• Roasted vegetables
• Breads and rolls
• Other recipes where you would normally reach for butter or margarine

For baking and sweeter recipes, choose an EVOO or flavored olive oil that complements the other ingredients.
