There’s more than one way to cook a kabob. We love creating kabobs since you can mix and match your favorite vegetables and protein to create a delicious dish. To upgrade a traditional kabob, we used Mazolaยฎ Corn Oil to make a marinade and paired with bowls full of vegetables. Since September is National Cholesterol Awareness month, this is an awesome time to learn more about corn oil and its benefits. And, since a clinical study showed Mazola Corn Oil reduces cholesterol 2x more than extra virgin olive oil, corn oil is a staple that you need for your pantry. To learn more about this claim, seeย Mazola.com.

Mazola Corn Oil is an all-purpose, cholesterol free cooking oil that is a smart heart-healthy* choice for your family. *See Mazola.com for more information on the relationship between corn oil and heart health. It has a variety of uses including baking, grilling, sautรฉing, stir frying, or mixing up a marinade or dressing. 

To upgrade a traditional Mexican bowl, I made some health-friendly ingredient swaps. Reduce saturated fats and cholesterol in your meals easily with simple swaps, such as substituting butter with Mazola Corn Oil. I used Mazola Corn Oil in place of butter and other oils. I used brown rice instead of white rice, Greek yogurt instead of sour cream, and vegetable options instead of cheese and other traditional taco toppings. Trust me, with all these vegetables, you won’t need anything else but what you see here! 

To make a kabob, we used tomatoes, peppers, onions, green peppers, red peppers, and a thick cut of beef. You may also like potatoes or eggplant on your kabob. The more vegetables, the better!
