Emile Noel Olive Oil Giveaway (Expired), Review & Recipe! =)

To celebrate October aka Non-GMO month Emile Noel is celebrating with a giveaway! But before we get to that let me tell you about this delicious olive oil. Emile Noel oils have been Non-GMO since 1920 when founded by Emile Noel and have recently expanded to the U.S. in 2013. And if you thought that was good news then you will be happy to know they make more than just olive oil. Below is a list of all the oils I have found made by Emile:

* Olive Oil
* Macadamia Oil
* Hazelnut Oil
* Sesame Oil
* Pumpkin Seed Oil
* Walnut Oil

 

I was unsure of what recipe I wanted to use for this review. I wanted a recipe that really showcased the mild yet  elegant flavor of Emile Noel Olive oil, and I found it! Here is a recipe I adapted from FOOD.COM and it works so well with Emile Noel Olive Oil.

 

 

Garlic & Olive Oil Pasta Recipe

Ingredients:

1 pound spaghetti (cooked to eldente and drained)

3/4  Cup Emile Noel Olive Oil

2 Large garlic cloves ( if you like more or less garlic feel free to adjust this )

1 pound of bacon (fried, crumbled & grease drained )

1/8 Cup Fresh parsley + some for garnish (finely chopped)

Parmesan cheese to sprinkle on pasta if desired

 

Directions:

In a large bowl add all ingredients except garlic and Emile Olive oil, use tongs to toss spaghetti so all ingredient are mixed. In a smaller bowl add garlic by squeezing it through a garlic press, then add Emile Olive Oil. Using a whisk, whisk vigorously for 30 seconds. Poor this mixture over the spaghetti and toss with tongs once more. Enjoy! =)

 

I took this spaghetti to my moms house and one of the first things she said to me was “Oh my gosh, that’s good olive oil! what kind is it?” It is that good! After I ate my pasta I put some more of Emile Noel Olive Oil on my plate and dipped my bread stick in it…. Don’t judge me LOL

 

And if you think it stops there, you are wrong! Olive oil is also very good for your skin. Here is a link to my homemade  sugar scrub, Emile Olive Oil would work perfectly in this recipe! And with Christmas just around the corner these little sugar scrubs would make awesome gifts! =)
