    Beef Stroganoff {Oh How I Love The Leftovers}

    July 8, 2020 / 19 Comments

    This Beef Stroganoff recipe could be made with any leftover steak or nice tender beef strips and your favorite kind of mushrooms.  I am completely serious when I say that I might love leftovers more than the original serving.  I realize there are some exceptions, but for the most part I’m a leftovers kind of girl.

    Braciola {Italian Beef Rolls}

    March 26, 2015 / 14 Comments

    Braciole {Italian Beef Rolls} slowly simmered in spicy Arrabbiata sauce until the beef is fork tender.  The filling, comprised of parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, Italian bread crumbs, garlic, toasted pine nuts, and hard-boiled egg, is my loose interpretation of this classic Italian dish.

    Beef Bourguignon

    December 27, 2014 / 5 Comments

    Beef Bourguignon.  Boeuf Bourguignon.  Beef Burgundy.  I think we grew up with this dish.  No, not the first two.  My Mom made beef burgundy often.  The cuts of meat may have started out a bit tough requiring extra cooking love, but the end result was melt in your mouth wonderful. This year’s Christmas Eve Prime Rib was as good as any we’ve had in the past.

    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.

    Slow Braised Beef & Barley Soup

    December 2, 2013 / 3 Comments

    Our Slow Braised Beef & Barley Soup began by slow roasting some short ribs that were taking up space in the freezer.  Yes, I have once again vowed to stay out of the grocery store for at least a week. You could easily use leftover steak or roast beef or stew beef and achieve the same tender beefy goodness.  The trick is to not be in a hurry.  We brown our beef in a little oil before adding braising liquid to the soup pot, in this case we used beef broth.  Throw in a bay leaf, thyme sprig, and fresh cracked pepper and let her go low and slow until the meat…

    Classic Beef Stew

    May 19, 2013 / 6 Comments

    It’s really hard to top a nice big bowl of Classic Beef Stew.  Slow braised pieces of beef and root vegetables, cooked in a rich beef broth until tender.  Served in big bowls with crusty bread. I’m not sure there’s much more to say about that.  I’ll let the pictures speak to you.  Take your time, I’m in no hurry.  When you’re ready, our recipe method is below.

    Crispy Orange Beef & Broccoli

    January 18, 2013 / 8 Comments

    When I made the decision to dedicate Winter Thyme to Spice Exploration I began by playing with my spices….literally.  I transformed them into a Winter Thyme ‘Wind.’  Touching each one, taking in their individual aromas, admiring their earth tone colors, and seeing how beautiful they looked together.  As I stated in my Winter Thyme post, my goal for this season is to explore spices and share what I learn through new recipes.  Where they’ve taken me thus far is on an International journey.  So while my intention is to become familiar with spices, I’m kind of digging the new recipes and flavors along the way.  That’s my not so smooth segue…

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.
