    Welcome Autumn Thyme {Dried Herbs}

    September 30, 2012 / 11 Comments

    Today we say goodbye to Summer Thyme and welcome Autumn to the pages of Lemony Thyme.  Our new homepage picture tells the story of our fresh herb journey.  This Spring we made three whiskey barrel herb gardens for our back porch.  They became the inspiration for Lemony Thyme as our cooking began to burst with flavor.  We’ve nurtured them and they’ve nourished us all Summer long.  While we still have a good bit of life in our herb barrels…we’re but a frost away from losing them until next Spring.

    Broccoli & Bacon Breakfast Burrito

    September 29, 2012 / 2 Comments

    It’s the weekend!!! Breakfast makes me happy!  Discovering leftover steamed broccoli in the fridge inspires me…  This morning it shall be Broccoli & Bacon Breakfast Burrito.  Super simple and by adding a few fresh herbs and seasonings….super delicious! Of course bacon never hurt flavor either.  After browning the bacon in a medium skillet and pouring off the drippings I sauteed onion slices until tender, then added a handful of steamed broccoli florets, fresh lemony thyme, a pinch of Mrs. Dash Garlic & Herb seasoning, and a little salt & pepper.

    Grilled Chicken Tequila Burgers {with Cilantro-Lime Mayo}. Recipe Inspiration.  I’ve mentioned before that recipe ideas come to me in many ways.  Today for example, I spent my lunch break at the hair salon, a place I love for these three reasons:  first I adore my stylist and love hearing about her recent travels and life experiences; second because I always leave feeling refreshed and happy; and third because they have the best assortment of magazines!!  Today I left with 16 snapshots of recipes and ideas that I MUST try.  My head is spinning with fresh new visions.

    Fish Fillet Sandwich {Taste Test}

    September 27, 2012 / 2 Comments

    Please tell me I’m not alone in my love of McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish Sandwich.  I must be honest and admit I had let our relationship drift over the last several years…it’s my fault, I blame myself.  However, thanks to the new “Favorites Under 400” (calories) campaign our love affair has been rekindled.  I’m sure there are critics who will scoff at my admission, but in order to conduct a fair Taste Test I must inform (and warn) my competition of the nature of my personal relationship with F-O-F.

    September 24, 2012 / No Comments

    Thai Red Curry Paste is becoming a go-to ingredient for me.  It seems to find it’s way into Salmon Burgers, Meatloaf, Soups, and certainly Curry dishes.  It’s a wonderful flavor…not too hot, just uniquely red curry.

    Sweet Corn Tamale Cakes {Share the Love}

    September 23, 2012 / 16 Comments

    Had a wonderful girls lunch out at the Cheesecake Factory this past week.  If you’ve ever been you know their menu is HUGE and everything sounds interesting and delicious.  At our request, our server gave us a run down of her favorites from each category.  She named Sweet Corn Tamale Cakes as one of her all time favorite appetizers, which was quickly seconded by the most experienced Cheesecake Factory veteran at the table.  That was easy! Bring 5 forks please.  Today I will use this recipe to try and lure my kid off the lake and into my kitchen.

About Libby

Hi, I'm Libby and welcome to Lemony Thyme. I hope you'll enjoy this collection of recipes, eating experiences, and food photography. My cooking abilities rose to a new level when I started incorporating fresh herbs. I began to understand the term ‘layers of flavor’ and found myself deconstructing dishes with my tongue to identify each ingredient.
