    Sweet Potato Crust Veggie & Pesto Quiche

    May 23, 2021 / No Comments

    I am smitten with this Sweet Potato Crust Veggie & Pesto Quiche. It has the perfect balance of savory (hello pesto) with a hint of sweetness. I’ve literally made five variations of it in the past several weeks, sharing it with friends & family along the way. Rave reviews from all of my taste-testers!

    Spring Thyme Green Minestrone

    March 17, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Spring Thyme Green Minestrone Soup. When I looked into the eyes of my beautiful new fridge I saw shelves and drawers overflowing with ingredients that begged for a chance to play nicely together. The result of nonstop cooking for a week straight. Have you seen our March Meatball Madness posts??! When I studied the contents it became blatantly obvious that my fridge and my well-being needed a big pot of soup!

    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.

    Arancini {with Basil Pesto & Marinara Sauce}

    June 5, 2014 / 5 Comments

    Arancini {with Basil Pesto & Marinara Sauce} I was the girl who grew up eating my spaghetti with butter and parmesan cheese.  No red sauce for this kid.  I even scraped the sauce off pizza before eating it.   Over time I fell in love with Alfredo Sauce but still avoided tomato based sauces for the most part.  It was all about white sauce in our home, with lasagna and occasionally meatballs being an exception.  This all changed on Christmas Day.

    Italian White Bean Dip {with Homemade Pita Bread}

    May 5, 2014 / 4 Comments

    I have a treasured folder where I keep paper copies of recipes.  Some jotted down on scratch paper, others torn from magazines, and lots printed from the pages of fellow bloggers I admire.  This morning I found this Italian White Bean Dip recipe that I had torn from a Weight Watchers hand out….months ago.  Time to revisit.

    Baked Potato {with Tomatoes, Basil Pesto & Fresh Mozzarella}

    February 24, 2014 / 3 Comments

    Baked Potato {with Tomatoes, Basil Pesto & Fresh Mozzarella}. Fresh Basil Pesto might as well be classified as butter.  Because when you spoon it onto a piping hot potato, it melts into amazing.  Now add fresh diced tomato and shredded mozzarella.  This might just be as good to me as say Pizza Margherita with a Perfectly Baked Potato crust.

    Pan Seared Sea Scallops with Basil Pesto Pasta. Fill my pasta bowl with capellini tossed in fresh Basil Pesto and I am one happy camper.  Top it with pan seared scallops and I’m liable to do a back flip.  Something I’d regret in the morning.

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.
