Olive Oil for Summer Grilling

If you're ready to break out your George Foreman for some summer grilling, be sure not to forget the olive oil! While extra-virgin olive oil is great for drizzling over pasta, the rich flavor is killed by heat, so it's good to go basic when you're cooking. Also, the thicker consistency of olive oil means that seasonings adhere nicely to meat and veggies. And, of course, olive oil is way high in monounsaturated fats and antioxidants - which is good news for your cholesterol.
