We got a new pellet smoker grill and have had that bad boy fired up every weekend since, which means for the most part I’ve had weekends off from cooking. At least cooking out of need vs. for fun. Smoked turkey breast and the heavenly broth that followed was the recipe inspiration for this Turkey Divan 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 »

We’ve made this dish so often that frankly I’ve taken for granted how good it is. Now that school is back in session the talk around the office has changed from backyard BBQ’s and poolside picnics to family friendly weeknight meals. These Turkey Meatballs with Mushroom Gravy are simple and delicious. Continue reading »

This dish is the love child of two farmers markets visits in one day. I scored some gorgeous tomatoes at my morning market and sweet sea scallops from my evening market. Then in my one mile drive home I came up with this recipe. It’s that simple. Let me break down Seared Sea Scallops {over Tomato Bacon Jam & Herb Infused Grits} layer by layer. 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 »

At first this Turkey Divan Grilled Cheese Sandwich vision seemed a bit of a stretch. However, since it was born out of ingredients already in our fridge/pantry it was worth giving it a go. No risk, no reward.

As I stepped out of my car I was greeted by the smell of bacon cooking. I walked through the door and found a sack full of fresh from the garden potatoes on the counter. Loaded Potato Soup was about to be born. Continue reading »

Herb Infused Polenta {with Poached Eggs}.
Not exactly what I had in mind as I entered the kitchen this morning. However sitting here just minutes after enjoying it for Sunday brunch I’m in love with the flavors lingering on my tongue. They’re familiar and comfortable. Equally as exciting to the taste buds is their aroma. They are fresh herbs. Continue reading »

Snow-Day Chicken Pot Pie.
We were snowed in again and completely made the best of it. Let me remind you we live in the sunny south, so snow days are few and far between. Stranded at home is my excuse to turn to my fridge/pantry for inspiration. Continue reading »
