    Parmesan Crisps with Summer Tomato Salad

    July 26, 2012 / 3 Comments

    Fresh local grown tomatoes inspire me.  And they are so flavorful and delicious right now.  The farmers’ market is bursting with gorgeous varieties and the growers are quick to share what makes theirs uniquely different.  Alas, I must try them all.  Parmesan Crisps with Summer Tomatoes make a wonderful appetizer or serve them in place of a salad.

    Caramelized Onion & Zucchini Quiche {Sundays with Shelby}

    July 23, 2012 / 13 Comments

    As I’ve shared before I may have a slight addiction to cooking magazines.  And recipes that feature fresh healthy ingredients always catch my attention.  My most recent Cooking Light magazine offered this Caramelized Onion & Zucchini Quiche recipe that not only fit the ingredients currently in my kitchen but was a perfect get-my-kid-to-come-for-brunch dish (I’m not above bribery and food seems to work quite well with her).

    Gazpacho {Sundays with Shelby}

    July 22, 2012 / 2 Comments

    For me, Gazpacho holds a special place in my heart. There are some foods that evoke emotion and this is one of them for me. Had a great day with my kid! Visited our local “every 3rd weekend antique market” just becuz…. I truly believe Grammy gave us the gift of gab…we couldn’t walk by a booth without engaging the vendor.  My kid scored a cast iron tea pot and bartered for a leather vintage bag (90 minute massage = $90 leather bag)!

    Herbed Tomato Salad

    July 15, 2012 / No Comments

    Fresh Summer Tomatoes… they are so capable on their own…they need no sidekicks, no opening act.  I begged forgiveness when I added a few simple ingredients…fresh basil & lemony thyme, balsamic, olive oil, thin sliced red onion, croutons, and fresh cracked pepper.  Thank you tomato gods…we honor you.

    Sesame Brussels Sprout Slaw We love slaw at our house and change up our recipe often.  But this version was very different.  The sesame oil & seeds added that yummy nutty flavor which worked so well with the balsamic.  We’ll surely have this one again.

    Eggplant, Zucchini, & Squash Curry

    July 14, 2012 / 1 Comment

    A few years ago I took on a new level of interest in cooking.  I became a student of spices, learned which spices went best with which ingredients, and tested different combinations.  During that particular Autumn season soups, stews, chilis, and sauces were transformed.  Our kitchen was filled with amazing aromas and our favorite soup bowls filled with new fresh flavors.

    Skillet Veggie & Herb Hash with Fried Egg

    July 4, 2012 / 3 Comments

    Skillet Veggie & Herb Hash with Fried Egg. It’s a beautiful July 4th morning.  After a week of sweltering heat there’s actually a breeze across my back porch.  I’m so excited to make my first skillet dish.  I scored finding two of these 5″ cast iron skillets at a thrift store (I think I actually smiled out loud at the sight of them). For the hash ~ I lightly browned in butter red & white onion, cubed butternut squash and baby potatoes.  Then I added 1/2″ water, covered them and simmered on low until they were just tender and the water had evaporated.  I added a little more butter with fresh…

    Light & Refreshing Chilled Curried Zucchini Soup

    June 21, 2012 / 2 Comments

    This Light & Refreshing Chilled Curried Zucchini Soup is bursting with beautiful flavors.  Some of that was due to the overnight chilling.  This soup started as a hot soup the night before.  It wasn’t until the next morning when I went to the fridge to see what leftovers I could turn into breakfast that I discovered the full beauty of this soup.  And so it became Chilled Curried Zucchini Soup.

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.
