I LOVE Mojitos!!
This Peach Mojito {with Ginger Simple Syrup} is the 7th Mojito recipe on Lemony Thyme and might be my new favorite. Nothing sings summer quite like fresh juicy peaches. Pairing the sweet peaches with ginger simple syrup introduces a lovely depth of flavor you’ll really enjoy.

Mussels simmered in white wine, garlic and butter, in my opinion, rank right up there with Scallops Wrapped in Bacon. So why would I mess with an absolutely delicious recipe? Rhetorical.
Because Thai Seafood Chowder not only sounds like winning, but the addition of coconut milk, red curry paste and Serrano peppers took comfort to a new level. Continue reading »

I’m not sure how it happened. Ahi Tuna on sale for $6.99 a pound. Text message…go there. Do not pass go, do not collect $200 dollars…just bring home Tuna. I have to say, I was a bit skeptical.

Mu Shu Chicken Cabbage Rolls.
Chinese New Year is always an ‘event’ for me. My passion for this holiday stems from my day job, which is…importing door locks. Hold on, don’t run away so fast. 21 years ago, I left my job as a lumber buyer and took a position as a… warehouse/errand running/shipping/office clerk/teach me how to drive that forklift and key door locks…I’m ALL IN kind of person.

I sent Shelby an innocent birthday text (back on May 28th). It went something like this….what’s your favorite kind of cake? She threw me for a loop with her response. Continue reading »

I decided to take my favorite slow cooker pot roast recipe and give it a complete makeover. Bing, bam, boom. Korean BBQ Beef. Simple as that and oh so delicious.

Ahi Tuna Burgers with Avocado Aioli & Sriracha Mayo.
After we fell in love with Salmon Burgers, Ahi Tuna Burgers seemed like a natural progression. A nice simple mixture of diced ahi tuna, with a little sesame oil, scallion, ginger, and soy is all you need. Continue reading »
