Love & Lemons Cooking Club – March!

Join the Love & Lemons Cooking Club Challenge this month! It's easy to enter, and one lucky winner will receive a prize. Find all the details below.

Four jars of overnight oats

Our Cooking Club is a fun way to celebrate the Love & Lemons community of readers. The concept is super simple—each month, I choose a recipe. You make it, and you leave a comment on the recipe’s blog post. At the end of the month, I randomly select one winner to receive a prize.

I love the sense of community that comes from so many people cooking one recipe each month. We’re kicking off our March challenge today with our overnight oats recipe, and I hope you’ll join in the fun. Here’s how it works:

Join the Love & Lemons Cooking Club

  1. Each month, I choose one seasonal recipe. Sign up for our email list so you’ll know as soon as I share each month’s recipe.
  2. Make that recipe during the month.
  3. Leave a comment on the challenge recipe’s blog post by the end of the month. This time, the deadline is March 31!
  4. For a bonus entry, send a picture of what you made to cookingclub@loveandlemons.com.
  5. For another bonus entry, post your photo on Instagram, tagging @loveandlemons and #loveandlemonscookingclub.

The Prize: A $100 Whole Foods Gift Card!

At the end of the month, I’ll randomly select a winner and share some of your photos. This time, we’re giving away a $100 Whole Foods gift card. 

In addition, for every entry we receive, we’ll donate $1 to No Kid Hungry.

March’s Recipe: Overnight Oats

We’re making another breakfast recipe this month: overnight oats!

I chose overnight oats as our challenge recipe as few years ago in March. I try not to repeat cooking club recipes, but I thought this one was really fun because everyone shared such delicious topping ideas. So this month, I’m bringing it back!

I share four flavor variations in my overnight oats recipe, but please feel free to make your oats your own. Comment with what you added when you enter! I’m always looking for overnight oat inspiration, and I’m sure other cooking club members are too.

I’ll definitely share some of your ideas in next month’s recap!

Want to enter? Here’s what you need to do:

  1. Make my overnight oats recipe sometime in March.

I’ll randomly select a winner and share some of your photos in early April.

Last Month’s Recipe

Last month, you had two recipe options: pancakes or vegan pancakes! We racked up 116 comments on those blog posts, so we’ll be making a donation of that amount to No Kid Hungry.

My favorite thing about this challenge was hearing how many of you shared the pancakes with your kids or family. These pancakes are one of our family favorites too!

Chocolate chips were the most popular add-in, and the most popular topping (aside from syrup) was berry compote. Thanks for joining in!

Here are some of your photos:

 

And congrats to Kiley, our winner:
