Slow Braised Beef Short Ribs
I’m Libby with Lemony Thyme and the voice behind this blog, however I learned the fundamentals from a variety of sources. When I started this blog 2+ years ago, my family was supportive yet cautious. I’ll tell you more about that but first I must introduce a staple recipe, Slow Braised Beef Short Ribs. Fall off the bone beefy goodness.

Carne Asada Marinated Beef Tips {over Jalapeño & Corn Grits}
I saw this plate of heavenly food in a magazine ad (something very similar to this plate). I knew at that moment I would either have to drive to the restaurant or recreate it at home. That’s when our Marinated Beef Tips {over Jalapeño & Corn Grits} were born.

Albóndigas Soup {Mexican Meatball Soup}
It was this Kicked Up Albóndiga Soup recipe from Hispanic Kitchen that first grabbed my attention. I knew instantly it would be a hit at our house when I read the recipe. We are on an undeniable meatball kick. I’m not sure what’s gotten into us, but it’s full out meatball mania around here.

Italian Bean Soup with Mini-Meatballs {Pasta e fagioli inspired}
Italian Bean Soup with Mini-Meatballs. I intentionally did not call this a recipe for Pasta e fagioli, although it was clearly my inspiration. Pasta e fagioli is traditionally a meatless dish, comprised of pasta and beans in a tomato base. When I did my standard recipe research I had a hard time avoiding the bazillion copycat recipes for Olive Garden’s Pasta e fagioli. We may be the only family I know who has not had a bowl of Olive Garden’s Pasta e fagioli. I’m sure it’s delicious but I chose not to compete with the masses.
