    Gruyere Cabbage {with Bacon}

    March 17, 2015 / 17 Comments

    We bought a 5 pound cabbage for 88 cents.  Not sure why I chose that as the intro line to this recipe, but dang cabbage is cheap.  Which makes really good cabbage recipes all the more appealing. We like many, had Corned Beef & Cabbage for St. Patrick’s Day.  We like many, have leftovers to repurpose.  Gruyere Cabbage was a dish my mom made often.  Today, I dug out the 30-year old hand written recipe card, made sense of the measurements, and added bacon.  Oh my!  I think Mom would be proud.

    Blueberry Balsamic Red Onion & Gruyere Grilled Cheese

    August 24, 2014 / No Comments

    I’m always, always on the lookout for the next best grilled cheese sandwich.  I seek inspiration at every turn.  Every turn down the grocery store isle.  Every turn through food magazine features.  And every page turn of my current favorite cook book. And there she was.  Right in front of me for nearly a month before she jumped out and bit me.  That gorgeous Emmentaler on Rye sandwich inspired our Blueberry Balsamic Red Onion & Gruyere Grilled Cheese.

    Tomato & Cheese Fondue

    August 7, 2014 / 1 Comment

    My first experience with fondue was in the mid to late 70s while visiting New York City.  Mom took us to a trendy new restaurant called The Melting Pot.  Fondue was the hottest craze to hit the restaurant scene.  We gleefully dipped breads, meats, and seafood into broths and cheeses.  As a kid this might have been the coolest dining experience in my entire 12 year life.

    Turkey Divan Grilled Cheese Sandwich

    July 12, 2014 / 7 Comments

    At first this Turkey Divan Grilled Cheese Sandwich vision seemed a bit of a stretch.  However, since it was born out of ingredients already in our fridge/pantry it was worth giving it a go.  No risk, no reward.

    French Onion Soup Grilled Cheese Sandwich

    A French Onion Soup Grilled Cheese Sandwich didn’t seem quite as crazy as my Spaghetti & Meatball Grilled Cheese Sandwich last week.  Boy did I catch some flack for that one from the healthy-eating police.

    Grilled Rosemary Ham & Gruyere Cheese Sandwich {with Sundried Tomatoes}

    January 28, 2013 / 3 Comments

    Grilled Rosemary Ham & Gruyere Cheese Sandwich {with Sundried Tomatoes} I had a hankering for a grilled cheese for lunch today (I feel like I’ve used that line in a post recently…hmmm).  On my short drive from the office to the grocery store my mind was racing through a mental inventory of what ingredients I had to work with at home and what I would need to pick up.  I knew we had a nice hunk of Gruyere cheese and so I decided it would be a grilled ham & cheese.  Simple, yet always delicious.

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.
