There are some recipes (curry, masalas, unstuffed cabbage rolls) that are a challenge to picture. They don’t have the color pop to match their undeniable flavor explosion. This Farmers Market Unstuffed Cabbage Recipe falls squarely into this category. Continue reading »

I made a big batch of Gazpacho to take to a family gathering. I thought it would be a nice refreshing change and it was. However, even after our party I had a good amount left, along with my favorite fine diced confetti colored veggies. This is how the Gazpacho Grain Bowl with Confetti Veggies was born.

For our Thanksgiving Dinner yesterday I served Parmesan Herb Roasted Veggies. It was my secret weapon to help keep me on my Healthy Choices plan. I knew no matter what else tempted me I could find comfort in that dish. Today as a fridge full of leftovers called to me…the first thing I did was make this soup. Continue reading »

Hanging on to every fresh produce summer moment over here on Lemony Thyme. I’m calling this soup Roasted Veggie & White Bean Chowder because it has a creaminess about it and chowders are amazing. The beautiful thing is the creamy came from the white beans not cream or butter. That puts this soup squarely in our Healthy Choices category. Continue reading »

Farmers Market Roasted Veggie Lasagna. I hope the picture above does this dish justice. It was amazing. I’m not one to go crazy with personal horn tooting but this was a huge success. I have shared it with 13 people as of noontime today. The responses were unanimous. “Oh my.” “Can I have one more bite.” “Yum!” “Is this recipe on Lemony Thyme?” Continue reading »

To say I love ‘thrifting’ is an understatement. And as a food blogger, I’m not alone. We’ve always got an eye out for unique dishes and props to use for our food photography sessions. I head straight to the dish/cookware section when I enter a thrift store then head to the cookbook shelf. Last week while visiting our local Humane Society Thrift Store I spied this gorgeous cookbook. The cover recipe was for Budín Azteca aka Aztec Casserole which matched this week’s Farmers Market bounty beautifully. Continue reading »

Have you ever made Baked Summer Squash Chips? Last July when summer squash was in abundance at the Farmers’ Market, I couldn’t help but bring home my fair share after every visit. Continue reading »

To our family, this IS Squash Casserole. We love it. We look forward to every occasion where it’s invited to the table. Today it was invited to my Annual Thanksgiving Luncheon at the office. It was one of over 30 glorious dishes, all homemade, with love, by my second family. We are blessed. Continue reading »
