    Simple Sofrito Recipe

    September 12, 2021 / 3 Comments

    This Simple Sofrito Recipe consists of peppers, onions, garlic, culantro leaves, olive oil and salt. Sofrito is a flavor base of herbs and aromatics used in Latin cooking, much like a French mirepoix or the Cajun holy trinity. While there are many versions of Sofrito, this recipe most resembles one found in Puerto Rican cooking also known as recaito.

    Heart Healthy Turkey & Sweet Potato Southwest Chili

    September 1, 2021 / 11 Comments

    My motivation for this Heart Healthy Turkey & Sweet Potato Southwest Chili was to deliver a flavor packed hearty chili. You know the kind even your manly man will eat. But packed full of nutrients without extra calories.  Because let’s face it, most of us don’t need empty calories and are perfectly happy as long as we’re satisfied.  This chili is definitely satisfying.

    How To Handle a Big Mac Attack

    July 21, 2021 / 5 Comments

    Here’s How to Handle a Big Mac Attack! Healthy eating police stand down. We all have our guilty pleasures and while it’s been years since I’ve ordered a McDonald’s Big Mac, the saucy beefy cheesy classic lingers in my mind. The way I see it is when the attack happens you have two choices. You can either drive to the closest McDonald’s OR you can make this double decker delight at home! I vote for homemade all day – every day!

    Crawfish Étouffée. When you have family from New Orleans come into town during Crawfish season, it can only mean one thing! We’re having a Crawfish Boil!! And what a glorious boil we had. But in the end, that 40 pound sack of crawfish was more than we could eat in one sitting and that’s how Crawfish Étouffée came to be.

    Hawaiian Style Macaroni Salad is Simply Delicious

    March 27, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Every plate lunch in Hawaii includes a scoop of Hawaiian Style Macaroni Salad. It’s very basic, but that’s what makes it so good. In Hawaii the plate lunch is their most popular dish. Yes, the poke bowl is a close competitor, but every road side stand, food truck, and hole-in-the-wall restaurant offers a plate lunch. Classically your ‘plate’ will include a protein, then they add two scoops of white rice and a generous serving of this macaroni salad. It’s a carb lovers dream!

    Cauliflower Fried Rice

    March 19, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Cauliflower Fried Rice. If you’re craving a low-carb or vegetarian alternative to traditional fried rice, this is the recipe for you. A little sesame oil and soy sauce and you’ve got the flavor profile down. I always add carrots, onion and green peas but sometimes I also add zucchini, broccoli, mushrooms, shrimp, or even bacon.

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.
