    Pasta alla Norma {Eggplant Pasta}

    February 22, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Pasta alla Norma is an Italian pasta and eggplant dish with roots in the ancient port city of Catania, Sicily. My husband’s ancestors also have roots in Catania! Lucky for me it’s where we visited on a dream vacation a few years back.

    Thai Pasta Salad {with Peanut Dressing}

    August 27, 2020 / No Comments

    Would you look at the vibrant colors in this Thai Pasta Salad! Besides the crisp fresh veggies, we found this lovely tri-colored pasta at our local Farmers Market and wanted to turn it into a nice summer salad. Shhhhh….it’s also gluten free, no one would ever know.

    Cheesy Bowtie & Butternut Squash Bake

    November 6, 2014 / 1 Comment

    This Cheesy Bowtie & Butternut Squash Bake was born out of ingredients already on hand.  It’s loaded with veggies and I promise you even the youngest members of the family will love this dish.  Butternut squash, fresh mushrooms & spinach, an open box of pasta and the end of a hunk of cheddar cheese came together in a snap.

    Jalapeno Poppy Seed Chicken Casserole

    July 10, 2014 / 3 Comments

    Our Jalapeno Poppy Seed Chicken Casserole is a spin off of a very popular and delicious recipe.  I enjoyed it at a luncheon recently and it’s been on my mind ever since.  According to an internet search, it seems to have been recreated at least a bazillion times.  Here’s our version, based on ingredients already in our fridge and pantry.

    Ahi Tuna Noodle Casserole {with a Lemony Thyme Sauce}

    July 14, 2013 / 4 Comments

    I recently got on a kick of looking for ways to ‘Deconstruct’ recipes.  It seemed like a cool way to present a dish and the couple I have posted were quite fun.  Next up on my ‘to-be-deconstructed’ list was Tuna Noodle Casserole.  A comfort food dish that many of us grew up on (whether you liked it or not). My thought was to build the layers of flavor thoughtfully using top quality ingredients to deliver a bowl of comfort.  I think I’ve succeeded with this one.

    Mac ‘n Cheese {Sage Brown Butter & Bacon}

    November 11, 2012 / 2 Comments

    I’ve recently read some articles on a growing movement to bring Home Ec back to schools.  Healthy eating and knowledge of nutrition being the core reason, self-sufficiency and cost savings also getting a mention.  And while I wholeheartedly agree, I propose another consideration for teaching teens and young adults the ‘basic’ life skills taught in a Home Economics classroom.  Creativity. Cooking, like sewing or painting or wood-working, is a way to express yourself artistically…and a wonderful stress-reliever.  So don’t get me wrong, I do believe ‘home’ is the best place to learn these skills, but it was in my 8th grade Home Ec class where I learned to make a Basic White Sauce.  A skill just as valuable in my life today as…

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.
