    Crab Stuffed Mushrooms

    August 29, 2013 / No Comments

    Crab Stuffed Mushrooms For our last several family gatherings we’ve decided our dinner menu would be a vast array of appetizers.  We all, kids through Grammy and Granddaddy, love finger foods and this way no one is a slave to the kitchen.  As each family comes through the door the assortment grows and a new round of grazing ensues.  It’s fabulous.

    Swedish Meatballs

    August 28, 2013 / 2 Comments

    Swedish Meatballs.  Growing up, we enjoyed them every Christmas Eve as part of our annual holiday h’ordeuvres spread.  I’m slowly recreating these recipes one by one.  Some from memory and some that mom passed down to me.  Sunday I pulled out this recipe card and took a stroll down memory lane.

    Roasted Italian Veggie Grilled Cheese Sandwich {on Kalamata Olive Ciabatta}

    August 25, 2013 / 3 Comments

    Roasted Italian Veggie Grilled Cheese Sandwich {on Kalamata Olive Ciabatta}. It all began with the ‘featured’ bread at the bakery counter yesterday.  Kalamata Olive Ciabatta Rolls.  Combine that with my desire to build a better-than-the-last Grilled Cheese Sandwich…and we may have a new winner.

    Chocolate Truffle Cheesecake {with Chocolate Ganache}. Be careful what you wish for.  That’s how I felt when I was first handed this recipe.  You see it had been quite some time since our last Adventure in Chocolate.  I’ve been following a new healthy living routine and couldn’t quite figure out where chocolate would fit in.

    Chocolate Curls {and a little extra love}

    August 24, 2013 / 1 Comment

    Sometimes you make something so special that it deserves a little extra love.  That’s how I felt about my Chocolate Truffle Cheesecake with Chocolate Ganache Topping.  It was beautiful on it’s own but became drop dead gorgeous when topped with Chocolate Curls. A quick Google search led me to this step by step How To…Make Chocolate Curls article by The Pioneer Woman herself.  She has such a wonderful way of delivering courage and can-do doesn’t she?!  I just love her. Put 3 oz. of semi-sweet, dark, or white chocolate in a microwave safe bowl.  Add 1 tablespoon of Crisco shortening.  Microwave for 30 – 40 seconds until chocolate is soft and…

    Chinese Pork Tenderloin {with Garlic Sauced Noodles}

    August 22, 2013 / 2 Comments

    Pork.  The other white meat. I absolutely loved this Chinese Pork Tenderloin with Garlic Sauced Noodles.  I’m still loving it, reheated the following day.  There’s something really special to me about being able to prepare Asian food at home.  As much as I LOVE Chinese restaurants, I’m not crazy about the way I feel after consuming MSG and sodium laden dishes.  By making recipes at home you control the freshness and the ingredients.

    August 20, 2013 / No Comments

    Brazilian Feijoada {Pork, Beef & Black Bean Stew} The word Feijoada (pronounced fay-ZWAH-da) comes from the Portuguese word feijão which means “beans” and is the national dish of Brazil.  This stew is made up of rich cuts of assorted pork and beef that are slow cooked with black beans, onions and garlic.  It’s then served over rice with orange wedges which provide just the right flavor balance.

    Plum Pork Tenderloin {Slow Cooker Version}

    August 18, 2013 / 2 Comments

    Plum Pork Tenderloin. More and more I hear friends and coworkers grumbling about deciding ‘What’s for Dinner.’  It seems to stem mostly from lack of time to prepare and/or lack of inspiration.  On occasion Lemony Thyme finds herself in a similar predicament.  That’s exactly what sent me to Cooking Light in search of slow cooker recipes, where I found this Plum Pork Tenderloin recipe.

    Baked Broccoli Bacon Cheddar Bites {…of love!}

    August 17, 2013 / 3 Comments

    Baked Broccoli Bacon Cheddar Bites I asked Shelby for some recipe inspiration.  Perhaps something she had enjoyed recently in a restaurant that she’d like to see recreated.  Just so happens she had visited her local watering hole the night before and apparently the Broccoli Cheddar Bites hit the spot.  That was good enough for me to begin some recipe research.

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.
