    Great and Healthier to typical frying oil!

    I’m kind of an olive snob and am very particular about the flavour of the oils I typically use. Now the advantage of this particular oil is that it is a combination of canola, avocado, and mid-oleic sunflower oil which means it heats up faster and is thinner than your conventional olive oil (which makes it better for frying), has no trans-fats, is low in saturated fat and is a good source of Omega 3 & 6 (bonus)... I loved the light flavour it gave it gave my food.

    Becel Avo Oil A+

    My family and I were selected to try the BECEL AVO PLUS from Family Rated for free in exchange for our honest thoughts and opinions and we are in love! We use oil a lot more in cooking then we do butter or margarine but we find that it's hard to find a reasonably priced oil that is neutral tasting, with a high smoke point. Enter: Becel Avo Plus. It's everything we have been looking for and more!

    The Becel Avo Plus is a blend of canola oil, avocado oil, and mid-oleic sunflower oil. It has a neutral taste and has a smoke point of a whopping 455 degrees F. I use oil for everything in cooking from sauteeing, to roasting, to salad dressings, to dip. I love that with this oil I am able to roast my vegetables or potatoes in the oven at higher than 400 degrees F with NO issues. Something I learned that has always stuck with me is that canola and sunflower oil usually have smoke points of 400 and are also usually less refined (which is why they burn at lower smoke points). The higher a smoke point the oil has, the less impurities there are in the oil and therefore the less inclined it is to burn when cooking! Anyone who cooks with oils that have a higher smoke point also know that they can be VERY expensive. So finding a great oil, with a high smoke point, suitable for all cooking is important!

    I used the Becel Avo Plus for a variety of things over the past two weeks and I have zero complaints. I used it to sear steaks on a rainy day, in my homemade Greek dressing for Greek pasta salad, on oven roasted potatoes, and to saute my vegetables for chicken stir-fry. The taste of all our meals was incredible and was not compromised in the slightest. The smoke point stands true and my oil did not burn during the searing of the steaks or with the oven roasted potatoes. My favourite part is that there are ZERO trans fats and it is low in saturated fats.

    Overall, this oil passed the test in my kitchen and will be added to my regular pantry lineup. It is neutral tasting and versatile and has a high smoke point! I could not find the price of the oil in stores or online but I saw a reviewer comment that they could find it for $7.99 which is more then reasonable for the size, quality and versatility of the product. I would recommend this to family and friends and will be purchasing this in the future when I am able to locate it in stores! :)

    Great for baking

    I tend to use avocado oil in my cooking and baking, as I like the higher smoke point, mild taste, and health benefits, but it can get quite pricey when I'm baking a lot. I really like that this offers many of the same benefits of avocado oil and includes sunflower oil, which is another of my preferred oils. Another plus is that it is also MUCH less expensive than avocado oil. After trying it, I still prefer to use regular avocado oil for cooking but have definitely started to use this in my baking, as it offers that same great taste and texture, but at less than half the cost.

    My new favorite cooking oil!

    I received Becel's Avo Plus oil for free from the the family rated review club. So far, I love it! I have used it as a vinaigrette in my salad (lettuce, cucumber, tuna and a bit of salt & pepper). I love the blend of different type of oil: canola oil, avocado oil and mid-oleic sunflower oil. It is very tasty and light. I have also used the oil to cook stir-fry and it taste great! I definitely recommend recommend this oil to those who are looking for an alternative cooking oil. #free

    A light tasting oil that doesn't overpower your dishes.

    The #Becel Avo Plus was included in my #CookingWithBecel #familyratedclub box. This oil is ideal for cooking your favourite dishes. This light oil has a mild scent and doesn’t overpower what you are preparing. The 455F smoke point makes this oil a perfect choice for preparing your favourite stir fry or rice pilaf and it helps you create a delicious salad dressing. This oil will have you experimenting in the kitchen. It did not way down my food and make it taste oily, on the contrary, the food I prepared tasted light and flavourful. The blend of canola oil, avocado oil and mid-oleic sunflower oil gives you a flavourful oil that compliments your dishes. I’m impressed with the fact that this new #Becel oil has a healthy source of Omega-3 polyunsaturates and is low in saturated fat. It’s a product that you feel good about using. Moving forward, the #Becel Avo Plus Oil will be a staple in my pantry. Thank you @FamilyRated and @BecelCA for this tasty opportunity and bringing this product to my attention! #Gotitfree in exchange for my honest opinion. #familyrated #productreview

    Healthier Alternative

    I received Becel Avo Plus Oil free to test & review. I used it in a stir fry & my salad dressing. It has a nice light taste & I like that it contains avocado oil & omega-3's.

    Very versatile.

    I received this product for free as part of the Product Review Club. I really enjoyed how versatile this oil was. I used it in both savoury and sweet recipes and they all turned out great. It has a light flavour so it doesn't impact or compete with the end result too much. I also appreciate that it has a high smoking point, which made frying foods easy and it also didn't make my food smell heavily fried either. This had avocado oil blended in, with the added benefits of Omega 3, which is something that would attract me into buying it, as a consumer. However, I would have preferred a different oil other than canola, for health purposes. With that being said, if I ever need to purchase a canola oil in the future, I would probably opt for this blend, instead of just a regular canola oil. It's good, overall.

    Amazing Oil!

    Having tried Becel Avo Plus for the first time, I have decided that I will continue to buy it with my groceries.
    For testing, I tried it when cooking with a variety of different foods. I used it for making stir fry, omelettes, chicken breast, etc. Each time it added a nice subtle flavour to my meals.

    It is an amazing product, and I would highly recommend it.
    Well-worth the money!

    Très bon goût!

    Une très belle alternative à l'huile d'olive ou l'huile de canola ! Je prépare tout mes soupers avec l'huile d'avocat maintenant et ma famille et moi adorons !

    Si on pense au bien fait de l'huile d'avocat aussi c'est vraiment un beau win!

    Excellent for baking and more!

    I appreciate this plant based oil blend. It has a high smoke point and is great for cooking, frying, baking or even on the BBQ. I've also used it to make my own oil based dressings for cold salads. The taste is light and the uses are endless. Great product and I've recommended it to friends and family. I received this product free for testing purposes.
