Strawberry Chia Fools with Yogurt Whipped Cream

Strawberry Chia Fools with Yogurt Whipped Cream

April 11, 2016

These simple and delicious strawberry chia fools are topped with a honey Greek yogurt whipped cream. Serve them for breakfast or dessert! You know that old Jerry Seinfeld joke about how the handicapped parking space is the mirage of parking lots? ("Somehow, everybody missed it!") I feel like I ...

Spinach and Kiwi Smoothie

Spinach and Kiwi Smoothie

April 8, 2016

This tropical spinach and kiwi smoothie is vegan and gluten-free, and is made with just five simple ingredients. I wasn't going to do a post today. I had planned to share a new chicken recipe, but I burned the chicken. I'm still getting used to the broiler at our new house. Evidently it's mega ...

Strawberry Fattoush Salad

Strawberry Fattoush Salad

April 6, 2016

Ripe, juicy berries replace traditional tomatoes in this strawberry fattoush salad with crushed pita chips. If you have ever spent any time with me, you know that I am extremely vain about my hair. I don't like to shop, all my makeup comes from CVS, and the last time I bought an expensive ...

Nutella Stuffed Raspberry Bites

Nutella Stuffed Raspberry Bites

April 4, 2016

I recently learned something very, very important about chocolate. When you are melting it for dipping (fruit, pretzels, shortbread cookies, etc.) you can add a few tablespoons of Nutella and it will still harden and set up beautifully. Is this not the best news ever? Is your mind not ...

Grapefruit Cucumber Paloma

Grapefruit Cucumber Paloma

April 1, 2016

What's a girl got to do to get a drink on Easter Sunday? As I've mentioned before, Alex is Jewish and I'm half-Jewish. Easter is obviously not a big deal for Alex's family, and it was never a big deal for me growing up, either. This year I dyed some eggs with Owen and we gave him a little ...

Spaghetti Frittata with Turkey Meatballs

Spaghetti Frittata with Turkey Meatballs

March 30, 2016

This delicious spaghetti frittata with turkey meatballs was a total family dinner fail. Let me explain. I made it because Owen's picky eating has reached new heights lately. Last Sunday he ate nothing but fruit. (He refused French toast, roast chicken, sliced avocado, and a cream cheese ...

Asparagus Flower Vase

Asparagus Flower Vase

March 28, 2016

I was so, so sick last week, the mere thought of food---cooking it, styling it, photographing it---was enough to make me feel like I was going to throw up. I spent most of my time lying in bed trying to focus on my center of gravity and ward off waves of nausea. In my better moments, I flipped ...

Weekly Meal Plan — Week 6

March 27, 2016

Happy Sunday and Happy Easter (if you celebrate it)! I hope you are having a super weekend. I was sick with a stomach bug all last week and couldn't even look at food. Which, as a food blogger, posed a bit of a problem. I'm feeling much better now, and since I basically fasted for five days, I'm ...

Homemade Dark Chocolate Syrup with Sea Salt and Brown Sugar

Homemade Dark Chocolate Syrup with Sea Salt and Brown Sugar

March 23, 2016

My little guy, like most 3 1/2 year olds I suspect, loves chocolate milk. Our nightly dinner conversation usually goes something like this: Me: What would you like to drink? Water? Owen: Chocolate milk in the Mickey cup with the green straw. Me: The Mickey cup is dirty. It's in the ...

Easy Baked Shrimp with Garlic and Herb Butter

Easy Baked Shrimp with Garlic and Herb Butter

March 21, 2016

One of the many things that make me feel like I've passed into a new age bracket is the magazine Real Simple. I am now a subscriber. How can that be? It doesn't seem like that long ago that I was fighting with my mom in CVS about whether I was old enough to read YM. And it feels like just yesterday ...

Welcome!

Hi! I'm Lucy. Turnip the Oven is my vegetable-focused food blog, but sometimes I'm sidetracked by dessert. My recipes are simple and approachable, and I use fresh, seasonal ingredients. I hope I inspire you to eat more plants…and cookies.
