I made a really good Sausage & Thyme Cassoulet. I filled it with spicy Italian turkey sausage, carrots, sweet potato, kale, onion, tomatoes, garlic, and lots of fresh thyme. A nice slow cook turned all those flavors into the heartiest of healthy meals. Continue reading »

Rustic Potato Chowder with Bacon. After one bite I knew we would have to recreate it for Lemony Thyme. It’s hearty enough to enjoy as a meal and easy enough to become a weeknight favorite.

The cold weather season triggers something special in the brain. Whirling twirling ideas of how to make our favorite seasonal dishes even better than last year. Noooo I’m not referring to pumpkin recipes :) For me that something special would be soups. All kinds of glorious soups, of both the brothy and creamy persuasion. I took a good hard look at our Soups, Stews & Chilis category to see where there might be a void. Continue reading »

As I stepped out of my car I was greeted by the smell of bacon cooking. I walked through the door and found a sack full of fresh from the garden potatoes on the counter. Loaded Potato Soup was about to be born. Continue reading »

This week’s whole roasted chicken got bathed in rich Homemade Enchilada Sauce. Think BBQ Chicken, only basted with that wonderful chili and tomato based sauce. When it came out of the oven it was a sight to behold. We first enjoyed our chicken dinner which later became Chicken Enchiladas Soup. Continue reading »
