    Smoked Cheddar & Bacon Jalapeño Beer Bread

    April 24, 2014 / 8 Comments

    Smoked Cheddar & Bacon Jalapeño Beer Bread. When this bread recipe from Chocolate, Chocolate and More appeared in my newsfeed I was instantly hooked.  Joan took a classic beer bread and gave it personality.  Her gorgeous photo drew me in but the fact that you can have it ready for the oven in 5 minutes sealed the deal.

    Roasted Lobster & Corn Cake Grilled Cheese Sandwich

    April 16, 2014 / 6 Comments

    Exhale.  Not sure how to spell that sound so do it with me…in through the nose out through the mouth.  We’ve made it half way through April aka National Grilled Cheese Month and have proudly shared a unique grilled cheese sandwich each day on our Facebook page. The feedback has ranged from “Speechless” to “Girl. Giiiiiiirl. Yowza!!” to “I’m dreaming of Lobster Corn Chowder reconstructed into a grilled cheese.”  That was too good to ignore.  Thank you for the inspiration Sarah Mitchell.  Here is my version of your request.  Roasted Lobster & Corn Cake Grilled Cheese Sandwich.

    Seafood Lasagna {with Jalapeño Alfredo Sauce}

    March 3, 2014 / 7 Comments

    Seafood Lasagna {with Jalapeño Alfredo Sauce}. Indulgent.  I know.  I make no excuses and take full responsibility for my actions. Here’s how it happened.  We are desperately trying to work down the chaos in our pantry and uncover the mysteries in our freezer.  Our goal, by the time the Farmers Market opens this spring, we’ll have a clean canvas for recipe creation.

    Jalapeño Infused Margarita

    February 28, 2014 / 2 Comments

    Jalapeño Infused Margarita. I recently went on a business trip to Las Vegas and enjoyed a really nice dinner at Taqueria Canonita located in the Venetian Hotel.  The company, the atmosphere, the food…were all wonderful.  But the Jalapeño Infused Margarita was inspirational.

    Meatloaf {Moist & Delicious & Simple}

    November 10, 2013 / No Comments

    Moist & Delicious Meatloaf. Simplify.  This word hangs over my kitchen sink and is more often than not… ignored.  I love the concept of ‘less is more’ I just struggle when it comes to cooking with this in mind.  Having said that, this meatloaf recipe is the perfect example of combining just a few simple ingredients to create magic.  Maybe this should be called Magic Meatloaf.

    Steak & Cheese Subs {with Onion, Mushrooms & Jalapeno}

    October 29, 2013 / No Comments

    Steak & Cheese Subs {with Onion, Mushrooms & Jalapeno} are the perfect week night meal. I held back from calling these Philly Cheesesteaks.  I’ve never actually had an authentic Philly Cheesesteak but am sure they are worthy of more effort than it took to make these subs.  These were super fast and so easy. I also held back from calling these Steak & Cheese Grinders, which is what I grew up loving.  Wasn’t sure that the regional term ‘grinder’ would resonate with a wider audience :)  For almost as far back as I can remember my friends and I would get on our bikes and ride into town to eat at the Pizza…

    Pimento Cheese Dip with Jalapenos

    October 2, 2013 / 4 Comments

    Pimento Cheese Dip is such a treat.  I think because it’s made with love.  The same kind of love that goes into homemade Egg Salad or Tuna Salad.  You know the kind where the ingredients are finely diced, seasoned just right, and brought together with a little mayonnaise love.

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.
