    Chili Crisp Oil

    March 15, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Shelby and I sat at the dining room table (in her new home) for an entire morning. She peeling garlic, me shucking chili pepper seeds, all the while laughing about whether making homemade Chili Crisp Oil would be worth it in the end.

    Roasted Tomato & Red Pepper Dip

    March 4, 2021 / 2 Comments

    I was torn on whether to call this beautiful bowl of roasted goodness a dip or a spread. Not that it really matters, but considering I dipped my way through its photo shoot, I settled on Roasted Tomato & Red Pepper Dip. Had there been a baguette in the house, this most certainly would have been called a spread. You decide.

    Smoky Sweet Potato Hummus {my go-to snack}

    January 15, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Hands down this Smoky Sweet Potato Hummus has become my go-to snack. It’s the right mix of savory-slightly sweet that when paired with crispy chips or veggie sticks I dare say is the perfect snack!

    Braai South African Spice Blend

    January 14, 2021 / 6 Comments

    Braai South African Spice Blend. Several years ago for Christmas, Shelby gave me a Flavors of the World subscription box. It was great fun each month to unpack and explore the contents. Each box was designated to a different region of the world. There were often teas, chocolates, and assorted snacks as well as regional ingredients with recipe cards.

    Homemade Taco Seasoning

    January 25, 2017 / 2 Comments

    Homemade Taco Seasoning uses six ingredients you’ll likely already have on hand. Making your own spice blends is easy and economical. What a great way to incorporate individual spices already in your cabinet.

    Chicken Cacciatore

    January 19, 2015 / No Comments

    I’ve been itching to make Chicken Cacciatore but sadly one key ingredient stood in the way.  Green bell peppers and I just can’t seem to get along.  Same goes for cucumbers.  Two ingredients you’ll rarely see included in a recipe on Lemony Thyme.  However, an Eat Out of the Fridge/Pantry produce drawer discovery changed everything.

    Romesco Sauce

    July 5, 2013 / 1 Comment

    Presenting Romesco Sauce.  Think roasted red pepper pesto.  It’s nutty, with big bold flavors and is so versatile.  This sauce can be served on pasta, as a dip for fresh veggies, or as a spread on sandwiches.  But where we see Romesco really shine is when it’s paired with seafood.

    Smoked Paprika Sweet Potato Chips {Share the Love}

    February 27, 2013 / 7 Comments

    I work with 33 unique and amazing individuals.  Today I shall recognize one of my more colorful teammates.  Her color is pink, her personality is sassy, her aura is diva, and her soul is as pure and kind as they come.  She’s beautiful inside and out.  And did I mention she’s married to the sweetest man, who happens to have a kick-butt smoker.  Last week she brought me a sampling of his Smoked Paprika.  As soon as I opened the bag and the sweet savory aroma rose into the air…I could envision one thing and one thing only…BBQ Potato Chips.  My absolute favorite…BBQ Potato Chips…were just a mandolin away from happening.

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.
