    Easy Baba Ghanoush

    April 15, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Easy Baba Ghanoush is a wonderful middle eastern eggplant dip that’s rich flavor and creamy texture will delight your taste buds. Trust me on this one. You do not have to slave in the kitchen, or order take-out, to be able to enjoy this creamy dreamy eggplant dip at home. After oven roasting the eggplant, this recipe requires less than 10 minutes of hands on time. Hand me a pita…I’m going in!

    Farmers Market Roasted Veggie Lasagna {Share the Love}

    July 15, 2019 / 11 Comments

    Farmers Market Roasted Veggie Lasagna.  I hope the picture above does this dish justice.  It was amazing.  I’m not one to go crazy with personal horn tooting but this was a huge success.  I have shared it with 13 people as of noontime today.  The responses were unanimous.  “Oh my.”  “Can I have one more bite.”  “Yum!”  “Is this recipe on Lemony Thyme?”

    Greek Chicken & Eggplant Stew {with Citrus Herb Gremolata}

    January 15, 2015 / 2 Comments

    For the most part, our pantry staples are pretty common.  We keep canned tomatoes and beans, dried pasta, boxed broths, baking supplies, etc.  However there are a couple of other unique items I like to keep on hand just in case. Just in case a recipe for Greek Chicken & Eggplant Stew crosses my path.

    Eggplant Parmesan Stacks. I won’t pretend this is anything more than an attempt to sneak another Eggplant Parmesan recipe onto the pages of Lemony Thyme.  I want us to have options after all.  And they are kind of fun all stacked up and pretty.

    Moussaka {Greek Eggplant Lasagna}

    Moussaka.  The best Moussaka I’ve ever had was in ‘a diner.’  The kind of diner you find in CT or NY, that are open all night, where you can order fried eggs, t-bone steaks, pancakes, cocktails, Moussaka (or hundreds of other dishes)…any time of day.  Every time I visit my sister we have at least one meal at a diner, doesn’t matter which one because they’re all good, and most often I order Moussaka.

    Baba Ghanoush {Eggplant Dip}

    August 18, 2012 / 2 Comments

    While the recipe is delicious, I have since discovered a much easier and equally tasty version. Check out my Easy Baba Ghanoush recipe here. Eggplant was the abundant ‘on sale’ item in the fridge today.  I had bought two varieties at the Farmers’ Market but had yet to come up with a plan. While fresh picked eggplant is one of the most beautiful fruits of the garden, once cooked….is not always as good looking.  I did a quick Internet search for ‘pretty images’ of eggplant recipes and came across several for Baba Ghanoush.  I’d heard of it, maybe even enjoyed it in a restaurant, but certainly had not made it from scratch.  I decided to try…

    August 7, 2012 / 1 Comment

    Eggplant Parmesan is one of my most favorite Italian dishes, what’s not to love about something breaded, fried, and topped with melted cheese.  It’s also super simple to make.

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.
