Cookie Butter Parfaits with COOL WHIP Whipped Topping

Ahh, summer. Time to turn off the ovens, get away from the heat and enjoy the quick and easy recipes that don’t take much time to prepare. There’s nothing worse that being stuck in a steamy kitchen all day (unless it’s this Steamy Kitchen– i’m sure that would be a blast). There’s enough heat going […]

Greek- Inspired Slow Cooker Chicken

Β  My darling friend Joy of Fearless Freezer Cooking is here on Oven Love to share some summer freezer tips with us as well as the recipe for this yummy Greek chicken. I’ve enjoyed this recipe twice (once while in Joy’s freezer co-op and once after Lucy was born) and it was so good that […]

Honey Whole Wheat Dinner Rolls

I am always on the search for the best recipes out there. I know that doesn’t sound strange- who isn’t looking for great recipes? (Hopefully that’s why you’re here reading Oven Love.) But I mean I’m looking for the perfect recipes- the recipes you finally keep after months or years of looking. The recipes that […]

Make-Ahead Mango & Raspberry Margaritas

Long day at work? Rough day with the kids? Hot outside? Just really need a drink? These little margaritas are just the ticket. Good, cold, relaxing things come in small, glass, ready-made packages. I love this recipe! I love that you can make these hours, days or even weeks ahead of your next big party. […]

Turnip and Potato Soup with Smoky Cheese Toasts

Β  We are experiencing a crazy March heat wave down here. I am not ready for summer. I mean, come on.. I’m not done making soup yet! We got a big bunch of turnips last week from our farmer. At that time, it wasn’t 85 degrees, so this was the perfect lunch. I used my […]

Roasted Cabbage with Quick Balsamic Reduction

So St. Patrick’s Day fast approaches.. do you celebrate? I am in the midst of planning a very lucky, very green birthday party for my 2-year-old. His party falls on St. Patrick’s this year, so we decided to embrace the theme and get our green on. As you might imagine, we won’t be serving corned […]

Farmer’s Soup with Turnips, Spinach and Butternut Squash

I have Hilton to thank for this soup. Hilton is a local farmer who has recently set up shop in our town, selling his organic vegetables to people like me who are dying to have a real farmers’ market. For $20, you bring your own bag and he fills it to the brim with produce. […]

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Chia Bites

If you spend any time on these vast internets searching for recipes (which you probably do since you’re reading this blog), you may have noticed the trend in bite-sized snacks. There are the sweeter types like cake balls/cake pops and cookie dough balls as well as healthier versions like raw energy balls. I’ve been wanting […]

Gyoza Pan-Fried Dumplings

I don’t know if you noticed, but I don’t make much Asian food around here (remember Project Food Blog?). That’s not because I don’t like it, I just get a little intimidated by it and don’t know where to get reliable recipes. I’ve made a few Asian items- classic Kung-Pao Chicken, Lighter Sesame Chicken, Beef […]

Make Ahead Baked Oatmeal

Baked oatmeal is a great way to start your morning. I just ate this beautiful breakfast and the day is already off to a great start. Growing up in Central PA, baked oatmeal was always one of my favorite treats to have when we went out for breakfast. Every little diner and family restaurant has […]
