Mexican Street Corn
Oh my word. Mexican Street Corn makes me want to board a plane and head to Mexico. Wait, I just made this incredible corn at home in 30 minutes.

Chinese Pork Tenderloin {with Garlic Sauced Noodles}
Pork. The other white meat. I absolutely loved this Chinese Pork Tenderloin with Garlic Sauced Noodles. I’m still loving it, reheated the following day. There’s something really special to me about being able to prepare Asian food at home. As much as I LOVE Chinese restaurants, I’m not crazy about the way I feel after consuming MSG and sodium laden dishes. By making recipes at home you control the freshness and the ingredients.

Plum Pork Tenderloin {Slow Cooker Version}
Plum Pork Tenderloin. More and more I hear friends and coworkers grumbling about deciding ‘What’s for Dinner.’ It seems to stem mostly from lack of time to prepare and/or lack of inspiration. On occasion Lemony Thyme finds herself in a similar predicament. That’s exactly what sent me to Cooking Light in search of slow cooker recipes, where I found this Plum Pork Tenderloin recipe.

Shelby’s Yummus Hummus {Roasted Garlic & Herb}
Shelby’s Yummus Hummus {Roasted Garlic & Herb} If my kid had a signature recipe it would have to be her Yummus Hummus. She started making it several years ago as she discovered a new passion for ‘real’ food. This recipe was something she could make completely from scratch. She actually took great pride in soaking the garbanzo beans overnight and getting up in the morning to make a batch before heading off to work. I remember always hoping she would leave a little behind for mom.

Lamb Gyro {with Tzatziki Sauce}
Lamb Gyro with Tzatziki Sauce. One of my most favorite dishes to order from a Greek restaurant. There’s something so distinctive and special about the flavors of the heavenly sliced meat topped with the cool Tzatziki Sauce. If you love Gyros like I do then you know exactly what I’m talking about. This recipe brings all that together.

Tzatziki Sauce
Tzatziki Sauce. This traditional Greek cucumber yogurt sauce is a key ingredient in a Lamb Gyro and Greek Chicken Meatballs. It also makes a wonderful dip to pair with a fresh veggie platter. Served chilled, it’s so nice and light, yet full of flavor. The fresh mint, garlic, and lemon juice play oh so nicely together. I could go on. Instead I think you should make some…you’ll love it.

Steamed Mussels, Shrimp & Sea Scallops
Steamed Mussels Shrimp & Sea Scallops. This was last Sunday’s dinner. We posted a preview pic on facebook looking for a catchy name for this pot of love. The responses ranged from Shellfish Goodness to Seafood Delight, Call Me for Supper, and Shell-fish-pa-looza. All of which could aptly label this fabulous dish.

Vietnamese Beef Pho
Vietnamese Beef Pho. Let me just say this about that. I don’t think I’ve ever delivered so much flavor with so little effort. When I got home from work I assembled everything I needed, put the broth and seasoning on to simmer, all in about 5 minutes. I did also pop our beef filet into the freezer, which later helped with getting a nice thin slice.

Halibut in Roasted Romesco Sauce {over Pasta}
Halibut in Roasted Romesco Sauce over Pasta. Now that was a fabulous meal. I sampled Romesco Sauce recently and fell in love with it. I immediately added it to my ‘must make soon’ list and am so glad I did. The best way I can describe this sauce is as roasted red pepper pesto. It’s nutty, with big bold flavors and is so versatile.

Romesco Sauce
Presenting Romesco Sauce. Think roasted red pepper pesto. It’s nutty, with big bold flavors and is so versatile. This sauce can be served on pasta, as a dip for fresh veggies, or as a spread on sandwiches. But where we see Romesco really shine is when it’s paired with seafood.
