    Hot Cuban Dip

    May 17, 2015 / 3 Comments

    The inspiration for this Hot Cuban Dip was the Cuban sandwich I had enjoyed the day before.  With every bite I took I was reminded of how much I loved the flavor combination.

    Dark Chocolate Rum Cupcakes {with Salted Caramel Buttercream}

    December 8, 2014 / 34 Comments

    My Dark Chocolate Rum Cupcakes with Salted Caramel Buttercream recipe was inspired by the most popular dessert on this year’s Halloween Office Party Buffet.  There sat Mark’s picture perfect rum cake, whose aroma alone was so intoxicating co-workers began to stalk the break room pre-party (secretly wondering if they could manage to sneak a piece without getting caught). There’s something sensual about the combination of rum and butter and sugar.

    No matter how you stack it a Thanksgiving Dinner Sandwich is pure goodness.  For me, the key ingredients are stuffing, turkey and mayo.  This year, thanks to my sister Sarah, I’m adding a schmear of Cranberry Horseradish Mayo.  Oh my word, that stuff is addicting.

    Cranberry Horseradish Mayo

    November 29, 2014 / 2 Comments

    Weeks before Thanksgiving my sister and I were already making plans for the leftovers.  Turkey Noodle Soup, Turkey Divan, Turkey Tetrazzini, Potato Pancakes, Roasted Veggie Soup, and let us not forget Thanksgiving Dinner Sandwiches. Oh yeah, we’ve got stuffing, turkey, gravy, cranberry sauce all piled into a sandwich of comfort.  Then without notice she blurts out Cranberry Horseradish Mayo.  What?!  There was silence for about a nano-second before I shouted out.  Brilliant!

    White BBQ Sauce

    June 22, 2014 / 2 Comments

    The first White BBQ Sauce I ever had was from Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q in Atlanta.  We catered a company event and brought in a full spread of their pulled pork, beef brisket, and smoked chicken.  Along with the meat, they provided three distinct BBQ Sauces, one of which was White BBQ Sauce.  It seemed odd and quite appealing to this girl who loves all things creamy. Holy Wow! was the first thing I thought when I tasted it. We have since recreated this mayonnaise & vinegar based BBQ sauce at home. It’s creamy yes, but has a nice punch from the horseradish and creole mustard.  Black pepper and garlic round out the depth of flavor.…

    May 29, 2014 / No Comments

    If you’re looking for an easy and delicious seafood dish that’s both light and satisfying, Parmesan & Herb Broiled Grouper on Wilted Spinach is the answer! Combine mayo with parmesan cheese, fresh herbs, Mrs. Dash, salt & pepper. Preheat broiler to high.  Broil fillet for 8 minutes, then remove from oven and turn over.  Coat with Parmesan Herb mixture.  Place under broiler for another minute or until topping is golden and bubbly.  Unctuous.

    Loaded Egg Salad. Mom taught us how to make really good egg salad.  Finely chopped eggs, celery, scallion, mayonnaise, salt & pepper.  Nothing complicated just finely done.  That’s all I’ve ever wanted in an egg salad.  Until my birthday lunch out with Shelby.

    Homemade Buttermilk Ranch Dressing

    May 22, 2014 / 6 Comments

    When I first began the Lemony Thyme blog it was our fresh herb porch pots that I recognized/acknowledged/gave credit to/sited/attributed for my cooking inspiration.  Fresh Herbs still continue to amaze and inspire me daily.  However, I have found an equally intriguing element to cooking.  Recreating fridge/pantry staples from scratch (or mostly from scratch).  Homemade Buttermilk Ranch Dressing is super easy to make at home and just as good if not better than the bottled variety.

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.
