Stu and Edye Beans are seasoned RVers from Florida who have been adventuring together around the globe for the past 15 years, sharing experiences such as scuba diving, road-tripping, and camping. Today, they travel in a 20-foot, all-aluminum 2016 Livin’ Lite camper. Their travel schedule typically runs from Halloween through mid-April, focusing heavily on Florida State Parks and State Forests, including favorites like Wekiwa Springs State Park and Anastasia State Park.

Their cooking passion was influenced significantly by Edye’s mother, who was a skilled cook capable of making delicious, hearty meals from basic ingredients. Edye inherited this talent, placing cooking at the heart of their camping adventures.

Stu and Edye discovered the Omnia Oven during a search for camping cooking gear after a campsite theft left Stu without his griddle. The Omnia Oven, a three-piece cooking device consisting of a stainless base, a two-liter pan, and a lid, became an instant favorite. The heat from a propane stove circulates through the Omnia, mimicking a traditional oven’s capabilities on a much smaller scale. It allowed the Beans to dramatically diversify their camping menu beyond burgers and hot dogs, which transformed their campsite culinary experience.

Stu began filming their cooking sessions as a project during the early stages of the COVID pandemic, primarily as a way to learn video editing. This hobby quickly turned into their popular YouTube channel, “Little House of Beans,” which now features over 166 recipes specifically designed for the Omnia Oven.

“Outdoor Cooking with Edye” compiles their best recipes and includes unique features such as QR codes linking directly to instructional YouTube videos, beer and wine pairings for each recipe, and Stu’s special cocktail recipes called “Stutinis.” With 100 approachable recipes split between savory and sweet categories, the cookbook offers something for everyone and is perfectly suited for the Omnia Oven.

Below are six standout recipes from the book, specifically highlighted in our conversation:

To enhance the Omnia Oven experience, Stu and Edye highlighted a few favorite accessories:

Their preferred lid colors? Edye’s favorite is yellow for its cheerful brightness, while Stu loves pink for its distinctive look and conversation-starting quality at the campground.

Stu and Edye also run the Facebook group “Omnia Stovetop Oven Fans,” which has grown significantly and become a vibrant community. Members share recipes, photos, tips, and engage with fellow Omnia Oven enthusiasts worldwide, including North America, the UK, Finland, Sweden, and South Africa. The group is a welcoming space for all types of campers, whether tent campers or RV enthusiasts.

Stu and Edye’s journey with the Omnia Oven emphasizes creativity, practicality, and community. The Omnia Oven allows campers to expand their cooking repertoire, enhancing the outdoor adventure through delicious and diverse meals. Their cookbook, “Outdoor Cooking with Edye,” further supports campers in discovering the full potential of Omnia cooking.
