Farmers Market Aztec Casserole from 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.

Caprese Panzanella with Shrimp2

I scored these gorgeous tomatoes at the market this week, aren’t the colors amazing!  Each year when tomato season hits, we run down the list of our favorite tomato recipes.  Almost in unison, I heard Caprese Salad and Bread Salad.  Just think what gorgeous children those two classics will make.  That’s when the Caprese Panzanella love child was born.

All your favorite Italian Sub flavors in a salad.

By the summer of sixth grade I was old enough to head off on my bicycle in the morning, with one stipulation, be home before dark.  Most days for lunch I split an Italian Grinder with my BFF before heading to the lake.  This Chopped Italian Submarine Salad has all those familiar wonderful flavors.

Homemade Tomato Soup

All my favorite soups begin the same way….with a classic Mirepoix (onion, carrot and celery).  For our Cream of Tomato Soup, the mirepoix is primarily a flavor enhancer.  In the end it’s pureed, but I couldn’t help but leave some texture in our creamy bowl of comfort.  Continue reading »

Avocado, Cilantro & Lime Farro Salad {with Fresh Veggies}.

I must admit I’ve become a bit smitten with Farro.  I was studying the bulk bins at my local Whole Foods Market looking for something different.  I was charged up to discover that Farro is packed with goodness.  Continue reading »

Chicken Cacciatore over Spaghetti Squash

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.

Spaghetti Sauce

I have been on a Marinara Sauce kick these past couple of weeks.  I call it a kick because I’m still a bit shocked that we are becoming quite the homesteaders.  Well no we didn’t grow these tomatoes, but we did roast them, turn them into sauce and freeze them for the winter.  That’s a long way from opening up a jar of our favorite sauce.
