    Scotch Eggs {with Sriracha Mayo}

    June 21, 2015 / No Comments

    If I can deliver you Scotch Eggs but with a soft-boiled center are you in?  Hell, yes!! was the response.  So I got up early that day, did suitable research and enthusiastically jumped into this recipe.

    Thai Seafood Chowder

    June 19, 2015 / 3 Comments

    Mussels simmered in white wine, garlic and butter, in my opinion, rank right up there with Scallops Wrapped in Bacon.  So why would I mess with an absolutely delicious recipe?  Rhetorical. Because Thai Seafood Chowder not only sounds like winning, but the addition of coconut milk, red curry paste and Serrano peppers took comfort to a new level.

    Happy 3rd Anniversary Lemony Thyme

    June 18, 2015 / 1 Comment

    Three years ago today I ‘published’ my first post to Lemony Thyme.  Eggs Benedict ~ Two Ways.  Year one was a blur, year two was a bit more controlled, year three was very different.  It took the first two years for me to find balance.  My scales were tipping in the wrong direction.  Let’s take a look at some of the highlights from year three, then we’ll talk about the scale.

    Rosemary Ham & Swiss Savory Bread Pudding

    June 11, 2015 / 1 Comment

    My kid.  I love her completely. Her hugs. Listening skills. Eye contact. Thirst for knowledge. Hugs. Witt. Sense of adventure. Genuine interest in what you’re saying. Having said that, there is an I want this now and my listening skills have gone out the window at this moment, because I want this now quality about her that I admire. Go get it girl. Which is exactly what she did last week.  I’ll tell you more about that, after I introduce our newest savory dish.  I made a bit of heaven. Rosemary Ham & Swiss Savory Bread Pudding…inspired by a Sunday’s with Shelby outing (which on occasion happens on a Saturday).

    Came through the door last Friday evening (mind you…my most favorite evening to transition from work…to my garage…to the kitchen…is Friday).  You know the feeling.  What a Feeling!! Flash-Dance mode.  Sorry.  Not sorry. So I’ve made us a Lightened Up Shrimp & Grits.

    Steamed Veggie Ramen Broth Bowl {with Fried Egg}

    June 1, 2015 / 3 Comments

    I enjoyed a lovely lunch date with Shelby and her roommate Clare.  It was a post-birthday (for Shelby), pre-move in to a new cool place (for Shelby & Clare)…kind of celebration.  Shelby chose a VERY popular restaurant called Buttermilk Kitchen.  However, our hunger level and their wait time didn’t mesh so well.  So we bailed and opted for Noodles. This recipe post is a recreation of the fresh & delicious Steamed Veggie Ramen Broth Bowl {with Fried Egg} I ordered.

    Seared Ahi Tuna with Thai Risotto

    May 30, 2015 / 7 Comments

    I’m not sure how it happened.  Ahi Tuna on sale for $6.99 a pound.  Text message…go there.  Do not pass go, do not collect $200 dollars…just bring home Tuna.  I have to say, I was a bit skeptical.  This was not Sushi grade tuna, for which we will pay up for.  But it was fresh and thick and begging for a swim in marinade.

    Chocolate Truffle Torte {with Macadamia Crust}

    May 28, 2015 / 2 Comments

    May 28th is my darling Shelby’s birthday.  Twenty-four years ago today I became a mom.  THE most important job title I will ever hold. Last year on this day I made her a Chocolate Truffle Torte, with the intention of sharing it with you that evening.  Instead, we soaked in every ounce of our most amazing daughter and this recipe slowly moved into the unpublished archives.

    Chopped Italian Submarine Salad

    May 24, 2015 / 1 Comment

    By the summer of sixth grade I was old enough to head off on my bicycle in the morning, with one stipulation, be home before dark.  Most days for lunch I split an Italian Grinder with my BFF before heading to the lake.  This Chopped Italian Submarine Salad has all those familiar wonderful flavors.

    Submarine Dressing

    May 24, 2015 / 4 Comments

    For me, it’s the Submarine Dressing that kicks up all those Italian meats and cheeses as they nestle into crusty Italian sub rolls. I’m a huge fan of Italian Grinders aka Italian Submarine Sandwiches.

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.
