Cooking With Essential Oils

Did you know that you can cook with essential oils?? 

It's very important to use Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade essential oils like the ones doTERRA sells. Then, you just have to make sure they are safe for internal consumption. 

Some doTERRA essential oils that are safe oils to use while cooking include:

• Ginger
• Clove
• Cinnamon
• Lemon
• Wild Orange
• Rosemary​
• Lime
• Peppermint
• Lavender
• Thyme
• Marjoram
• Oregano
• Basil

You might be wondering "Why would I want to use essential oils in my food?"

Great question! 

With essential oils, a little goes a LONG way. For instance, one drop of lemon essential oil can replace a bunch of fresh squeezed lemons. 

Also, essential oils have a much longer shelf-life than dried herbs or spices. While oils may be more costly in the initial stages, over the long haul they will prove to be more cost-effective and last a really long time. No more running out to the store because you ran out of oregano! 

This weekend I made a salad dressing for my kids and me. 

Aside from a healthy alternative to store-bought dressings, we had a fun time making it!!
