    Carne Asada Marinated Beef Tips {over Jalapeño & Corn Grits}

    August 14, 2014 / 5 Comments

    I saw this plate of heavenly food in a magazine ad (something very similar to this plate).  I knew at that moment I would either have to drive to the restaurant or recreate it at home.  That’s when our Marinated Beef Tips {over Jalapeño & Corn Grits} were born.

    Seared Sea Scallops {over Tomato Bacon Jam & Herb Infused Grits}

    August 9, 2014 / 3 Comments

    Let me break down Seared Sea Scallops {over Tomato Bacon Jam & Herb Infused Grits} layer by layer. This dish is the love child of two farmers markets visits in one day.  I scored some gorgeous tomatoes at my morning market and sweet sea scallops from my evening market.  Then in my one mile drive home I came up with this recipe.  It’s that simple.

    Tomato Bacon Jam

    August 9, 2014 / 8 Comments

    This has been my Summer of Jam.  In years past I had avoided making jams and jellies simply due to my lack of understanding of the canning process.  However, once I discovered how easy it was to make skillet jams the creative juices began to flow.  Strawberry Jalapeno and Peach Jalapeno Skillet Jams gave me the confidence to take on Tomato Bacon Jam.

    Tomato & Cheese Fondue

    August 7, 2014 / 1 Comment

    My first experience with fondue was in the mid to late 70s while visiting New York City.  Mom took us to a trendy new restaurant called The Melting Pot.  Fondue was the hottest craze to hit the restaurant scene.  We gleefully dipped breads, meats, and seafood into broths and cheeses.  As a kid this might have been the coolest dining experience in my entire 12 year life.

    Chocolate & Peanut Butter Pretzel Squares {no-bake}

    August 5, 2014 / 3 Comments

    Spending Friday afternoon in the warehouse, checking and packing orders, was a wonderful reminder of how teamwork can propel a small company.  Laying wide awake in bed early Saturday morning…told me where my heart was. When Chocolate & Peanut Butter Pretzel Squares appeared on my Pinterest feed, I knew they needed to be delivered to all my awesome workmates.

    Tabouleh & Couscous Salad

    August 4, 2014 / 2 Comments

    I’m not sure why I’ve waited so long to make homemade Tabouleh.  It’s packed full of fresh herbs and aromatics, my absolute favorite way to enhance flavor.  Today, I introduced this dish to several friends, who I think now also share my love of this Middle Eastern salad.

    When summer tomatoes are at their best, I could eat a ‘matter’ sandwich for dinner every night.  Give me some fresh baked white bread, sliced garden tomatoes, Homemade Mayonnaise and listen to me utter these words.  Good gracious!

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.
