    Turkey Burgers {BBQ}

    February 27, 2013 / 1 Comment

    I have no excuse for not sharing this recipe with you before now.  Our close friends and family know that Turkey Burgers with Sweet Potato Fries had always been a signature meal for us.  However, somewhere around the time I got caught up in the What’s for Dinner craze (trying different recipes almost every night), our old faithful Turkey Burger got limited play time.  It took sharing them at the office last week for me to realize how much I’ve missed them.  And considering they are still being raved about, it’s time to give up the secret recipe.

    Smoked Paprika Sweet Potato Chips {Share the Love}

    February 27, 2013 / 7 Comments

    I work with 33 unique and amazing individuals.  Today I shall recognize one of my more colorful teammates.  Her color is pink, her personality is sassy, her aura is diva, and her soul is as pure and kind as they come.  She’s beautiful inside and out.  And did I mention she’s married to the sweetest man, who happens to have a kick-butt smoker.  Last week she brought me a sampling of his Smoked Paprika.  As soon as I opened the bag and the sweet savory aroma rose into the air…I could envision one thing and one thing only…BBQ Potato Chips.  My absolute favorite…BBQ Potato Chips…were just a mandolin away from happening.

    The Jarlsberg BLT with Fried Egg

    February 26, 2013 / 2 Comments

    At our last family pot-luck gathering, my sister-in-law brought a crock full of the most glorious cheese dip.  Jarlsberg Cheese Dip to be exact.  She served it cold with a sliced baguette.  I’m sure I never let it out of my sight or reach for the entire evening hour before it was devoured for it’s heavenly goodness.  She shared that she had bought this tub of love at her local Kroger supermarket.  I promptly sought out the closest Kroger and bought 2 tubs (plain and jalapeno) and a baguette.

    Turkey Piccata {with Mushroom, Spinach & Herb Couscous}

    February 25, 2013 / 2 Comments

    Jennie-O’s Ground Turkey, Italian Turkey Sausage, and All Natural Turkey Breast Tenderloins are all staples at our house, especially when we’re in Healthy Living mode…which is probably in order more often than not :)  I originally made this Turkey Piccata recipe a couple years ago when I was a die-hard Weight Watchers girl.  This dish has no lack of flavor but by simply exercising portion control AND measuring the added fats (as in measuring spoon) it can be a very figure friendly meal.

    Mushroom, Spinach & Herb Couscous

    February 25, 2013 / 2 Comments

    I am a huge fan of couscous and an even bigger fan of changing it up each time we make it.  For Mushroom, Spinach & Herb Couscous, I add diced fresh mushrooms, and sliced scallions to the cooking water, along with a tablespoon of olive oil, a teaspoon of fine chopped fresh lemony thyme, and about a 1/2 teaspoon of Mrs. Dash Garlic & Herb seasoning.

    African Chicken Peanut Stew {Pot Pies}

    February 23, 2013 / 2 Comments

    The first time we made African Chicken Peanut Stew was the day Shelby and I discovered Penzey’s Spices.  I bought three spices that day, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, and cardamom seeds.  You see, earlier that morning I had read my first ‘non-family/friend’ comment on Lemony Thyme.  It’s hard to explain the feeling but I was a titch giddy.  Perhaps it’s like being in high school and having a crush on the most popular kid in school, who doesn’t even know you exist.  Then one day, out of nowhere, they greet you by name.  What?!  Me, you know my name?  And my mother didn’t put you up to this?  It’s the kind of thing…

    Margarita Granita

    February 22, 2013 / 1 Comment

    While I generally order my Margaritas on the rocks with salt, if I’m going to have one frozen – bring me a spoon please.  Today is National Margarita Day, too great a Post op to pass on (ha!).  I decided this would be a chance to make my first Granita.  The Granita originated in Italy and can vary in texture and flavor throughout regions depending on the ingredients and freezing method.  I’ve seen some lovely Granita recipes on the pages of fellow food lovers.  And have been taking notes of the ones I will try when the warm weather comes back around…flavors such as Wild Strawberry, Cucumber Mint, and Pink Grapefruit come to…

    February 16, 2013 / 1 Comment

    One of my favorite soups is Roasted Garlic & Butternut Squash Soup.  Just the sound of it warms me and on a blustery day like today a nice big bowl full is in order.  This lightened up version is naturally very low in fat and high in fiber, making it a perfect go-to Weight Watcher recipe.

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.
