    Quinoa Tabbouleh Gluten Free

    April 13, 2021 / 3 Comments

    I wanted to make a gluten free version of Tabbouleh so included Quinoa! It’s perfect! There’s something about Spring that makes me crave bright green flavors! Which generally means I’m incorporating as many fresh herbs as possible. Tomorrow I am making Falafel which I’m going to serve on a great big board with lots of tiny bowls of other levantine favorites like hummus, Jerusalem salad, baba ghanoush, marinated olives and feta, and this gorgeous Quinoa Tabbouleh.

    Fattoush Salad

    November 4, 2015 / No Comments

    This salad.  This Fattoush Salad is flavor love. I was working hard to use ingredients already on hand.  I may be a bit out of control.  Pantry and freezer doors are…busting.  So I went on offense and typed pita, lettuce, mint, tomato into my search engine field. Kabam!!! Pow!! Fattoush!

    July 3, 2015 / 4 Comments

    It’s Independence Day weekend and that calls for a new cocktail recipe to celebrate. Kiwi Mojito {with Agave Syrup}.  Shades of green with kiwi, lime and mint.  There’s nothing like a rum cocktail to transport you squarely into a holiday weekend.

    Thai Larb Salad

    April 3, 2014 / 6 Comments

    When life gives you Boston Bibb lettuce and chicken, the first thing that comes to mind are lettuce wraps.  Our Chicken & Cashew Lettuce Wraps are a favorite but these Thai Larb Salad cups may have just inched them out in a popularity contest.

    Albóndigas Soup {Mexican Meatball Soup}

    February 20, 2014 / 3 Comments

    It was this Kicked Up Albóndiga Soup recipe from Hispanic Kitchen that first grabbed my attention.  I knew instantly it would be a hit at our house when I read the recipe.  We are on an undeniable meatball kick.  I’m not sure what’s gotten into us, but it’s full out meatball mania around here.

    Tzatziki Sauce

    August 7, 2013 / 5 Comments

    Tzatziki Sauce. This traditional Greek cucumber yogurt sauce is a key ingredient in a Lamb Gyro and Greek Chicken Meatballs.  It also makes a wonderful dip to pair with a fresh veggie platter.  Served chilled, it’s so nice and light, yet full of flavor.  The fresh mint, garlic, and lemon juice play oh so nicely together.  I could go on.  Instead I think you should make some…you’ll love it.

    The Classic Mojito {TGIF}

    November 2, 2012 / 6 Comments

    I think tonight is a great night for a Classic Mojito.  I believe we’ve got a touch of Indian Summer breaking through what has been a crazy week of weather and my fresh mint is still thriving in it’s own private garden.  I had my first Mojito several years ago while vacationing in Puerto Rico.  Already a rum lover….I was quickly hooked.  I’ve since made Keylime Mojitos, Strawberry Mojitos, and still my favorite The Classic Mojito.

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.
