Creamy Roasted Tomato Dip

Creamy Roasted Tomato Dip

April 29, 2016 11 Comments

This creamy roasted tomato dip is the perfect quick and simple make-ahead party appetizer!  Are you looking forward to the Kentucky Derby next week? I'm not exactly into horse racing, but I always like to watch. It reminds me of when I was a little girl and my mom showed me National Velvet ...

Weekly Meal Plan — Week 6

Weekly Meal Plan — Week 6

March 27, 2016 Leave a Comment

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 ...

Dill Pickle Hummus

Dill Pickle Hummus

January 29, 2016 14 Comments

To quote Leo in Titanic, do you trust me? Because I'm about to ask you to take a giant leap of faith and put a whole lot of pickles in your hummus. In my mid-twenties, when I first moved to Brooklyn, I worked for a couple of years at a popular Israeli restaurant. They did an insane amount of ...

I think I'm a wee bit stressed out. I don't consciously feel anxious, but a few nights ago, I had a dream that all of my teeth fell out. While I was taking a math test. So yeah, stressed. Maybe it's because of the holidays (I have done approximately 0% of my shopping), maybe it's because we are ...

Stuffed Mushrooms with Hazelnuts, Kale and Gruyere

Stuffed Mushrooms with Hazelnuts, Kale and Gruyere

November 22, 2015 6 Comments

Pop quiz: what's the perfect bite with a glass of wine? The answer: these baby bella mushrooms stuffed with hazelnuts, kale, and a mountain of grated Gruyere. Pour me a big glass of pinot and I could seriously devour the entire tray myself. I'm not a huge fan of gut-busting appetizers that ...

Feta and Kale Dip

September 21, 2015 4 Comments

A few weeks ago, my boss showed up at work with an enormous bag of kale for me. Evidently, her CSA kept piling it on, shipment after shipment, and she was running out of things to do with it. Her freezer was full of kale pesto. She'd been eating kale salads most nights. She had even tried throwing ...

Emeril’s Marinated Mushrooms

Emeril’s Marinated Mushrooms

July 21, 2015 2 Comments

I've written before about how many, many of my cookbooks are stored in my mother-in-law's basement. I was down there earlier this week, and I'm not sure why, exactly, but I picked up a copy of Emeril's Potluck. Maybe it was nostalgia. When I was fresh out of college and working as an editorial ...

Have you ever played the Post-it game? Everyone gets a Post-it stuck to their forehead with the name of someone famous--real or fictional--and then you take turns asking yes or no questions to figure out who you are. The first person to guess wins. I once witnessed a friend get it in three questions ...

Homemade Barbecue Potato Chips

May 18, 2015 3 Comments

Greetings from the West Coast! We made it in one piece. Highlights from the trip here included changing pull up diapers in the (tiny, turbulent) airplane bathroom, paying for Internet in desperation only to realize you can't watch Netflix (tantrum), and when Owen threw his pacifier behind him like a ...

Owen has been napping really well recently, and I take full credit for it. Now that it's finally warm out, I've been taking him to this big park by the Hudson River in Tarrytown. It has two nice play structures, but the best part is that it's adjacent to a field of undulating hills. We bring a ...

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.
