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?”

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.

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.

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.

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.

Veggie Pancakes with Fried Eggs.
The light coming through our back windows this morning is brighter than usual. The angle in which it reaches the kitchen creates a spot light. On to the stage steps these gorgeous veggie pancakes.
I did not plan for this. When I opened the refrigerator door I was reaching for coffee cream. Instead out came zucchini, summer squash, asparagus, carrots and scallions.
