    Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles

    March 12, 2015 / 1 Comment

    Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles. Seriously?  Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough balls dunked in chocolate?  Oh my word.  Don’t leave me alone with a tray of these bad boys.  No worries raw egg police, these no-bake treats are egg-free.

    Healthy Southwest Burrito Bowl

    March 9, 2015 / 9 Comments

    Healthy Southwest Burrito Bowl. I went to Pet Smart during lunch to replenish Lilah’s food.  Pet Smart is very close to Pier One.  I was smack in the middle of Healthy Lunch Bowl Week.  They sell really pretty bowls.

    Spicy Shrimp Thai Buddha Bowl

    March 3, 2015 / 18 Comments

    I don’t think I’ve told you about my 2015 Challenge.  My Healthy Choices walking buddy Bethany and I signed up to walk a combined two thousand fifteen miles in 2015.  That’s five point five miles per day together or two point seven five miles each.  every day.  for 365 days. All that walking during our lunch hour, makes these girls hungry.  I’m proposing Spicy Shrimp Thai Buddha Bowls all around.

    Martini Mondays. I like the way that sounds.  Especially when I’m enjoying a mini staycation. I’ve been wanting to make this Nuts & Berries Martini since Christmastime when Santa first told me about it.

    We brought 7-Layer Hot Italian Dip along with a bottle of red and white Italian wines to a happy-hour party recently. We stepped outside the comfort zone on the wines, perhaps this is a chance to discover a new favorite.

    February 27, 2015 / No Comments

    I struggled with what to call these heavenly bars. I kicked around a few ideas.  Pretzel Toffee Bars.  Chocolate Coconut Layered Love Bars.  Magic Bars.  Seven Layer Bars.  Toothachers Met Their Match Bars.  Truth be told…they are a casserole with a little bit of this and a little bit of that.  A dessert casserole.  I’m not sure anyone would click on a recipe called dessert casserole.

    I had this vision of presenting a big bowl of Cream of Tomato Soup with Basil Pesto & a side of Mozzarella Dunkers aka Baked Mozzarella Cheese Sticks.  You know the scene, a gorgeous bowl of tomato soup with a side grilled cheese sandwich.  One glimpse and you’re committed.  The epitomy of comfort.

    Cream of Tomato Soup {with Basil Pesto & Mozzarella Dunkers}

    February 23, 2015 / 2 Comments

    All my favorite soups begin the same way….with a classic Mirepoix (onion, carrot and celery).  For our Cream of Tomato Soup, the mirepoix is primarily a flavor enhancer.  In the end it’s pureed, but I couldn’t help but leave some texture in our creamy bowl of comfort.

    Sausage & Potato Soup {with Spinach & Bacon}

    February 21, 2015 / 16 Comments

    Sausage & Potato Soup with Spinach & Bacon could be the cousin of Olive Garden’s Zuppa Toscana.  That however, was not at all my motivation for making this new recipe.  Did I tell you the story of how we scored 30+ pounds of bacon and sausage??  Can you imagine the delight when this text message hit my phone.

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.
