Coconut lovers unite! This Coconut Shrimp Fried Rice is bursting with fresh coconut flavor (and all the other reasons we love fried rice). This also happens to be the first NEW recipe published on Lemony Thyme in a really long time. It took spotting these young coconuts at a local farmers market to bring me back!

I hope you’ve been enjoying my mini-series on Lunch Bowls. I’m a bit obsessed with portion controlled meals. Mostly though, I’m quite fond of a theme.
It helps my brain get organized.
We recently celebrated National Crabmeat Day. When Bowl Week meets Crabmeat a California Roll Lunch Bowl is born. Continue reading »

It was this Kicked Up Albóndiga Soup recipe from Hispanic Kitchen that first grabbed my attention. I knew instantly it would be a hit at our house when I read the recipe. We are on an undeniable meatball kick. I’m not sure what’s gotten into us, but it’s full out meatball mania around here. Continue reading »

I must admit I’m quite proud of my Sushi Stack. Not only was it delicious, but it looks so pretty in a picture. And we all know how important that is :) Every time I visit Whole Foods I look forward to winding my way through the store, ultimately reaching the seafood counter.

Loaded Stuffed Cabbage Rolls.
As in…don’t hold back on the veggies. This was a fabulous way to work through the last few fresh veggies that needed to be eaten before it was back to the Farmers Market on Wednesday. This included a gorgeous head of cabbage that I was persuaded to buy (I just love farmers). Continue reading »

We just love sizzling Steak Fajitas served with all those delicious toppings. And nothing goes better with them than a side of Mexican Rice. I have read at least a dozen recipes for both Spanish and Mexican Rice in an attempt to find one as close to what we get from our favorite Cantina. Continue reading »
