Meet Christi
I’m Christi Johnstone, and I started Love From The Oven in 2010. My mother and grandmothers taught me that great food doesn’t have to be complicated. From tacos to cinnamon rolls, macaroni to chocolate chip cookies, their recipes were simple, comforting and always made with love. That’s what I hope to share with you. Learn more about me here.
