    Salted Double Dark Chocolate Cookies

    December 3, 2015 / 3 Comments

    At a recent family reunion I discovered these luscious Salted Double Dark Chocolate Cookies.  They are rich, crispy on the edges yet soft on the inside, with a hint of sea salt.  Can you see that molten chunk of chocolate there?  It’s the ‘Double’ in this cookie’s name.

    Cheesy Jalapeno Grits Casserole

    November 23, 2015 / 1 Comment

    I’m off this week.  Off from work.  My day job is running a door lock and hardware company.  Strike that.  My day job is motivating and hopefully at times inspiring my work family.  Ultimately we all want the same, from work.  It’s where we make our living, which funds our passions. This recipe has nothing to do with that.  But I wanted to share where I am right now.

    Linguini with White Clam Sauce.  Sometimes simple is simply the best.  In the time it takes to cook the pasta, you can prepare the heavenly garlic butter white wine clam sauce.

    Comfort.

    November 11, 2015 / 10 Comments

    Comfort. When you read the word comfort what comes to mind? Perhaps you are at a place in your life where comfort is most often used as a verb, whether providing or receiving it.  Since you’re reading this on my food blog, perhaps comfort food is the first thing you think of. When I wrote this post about Salisbury Steak I wanted to prepare and share a dish that said “when I am with you I am complete and comfortable”.

    Easy Pad Thai {with Spaghetti Squash}

    November 9, 2015 / 1 Comment

    Pad Thai is my go-to Thai take-out dish.  I love everything about it.  Traditionally this is a noodle dish and who doesn’t love noodles, especially when they are stir-fried with eggs!  Yum!!  Today I decided to lighten it up a bit, so I substituted roasted spaghetti squash “noodles” for the classic rice noodles.  Results.  Two thumbs up in this house.

    Fattoush Salad

    November 4, 2015 / No Comments

    This salad.  This Fattoush Salad is flavor love. I was working hard to use ingredients already on hand.  I may be a bit out of control.  Pantry and freezer doors are…busting.  So I went on offense and typed pita, lettuce, mint, tomato into my search engine field. Kabam!!! Pow!! Fattoush!

    It’s National Sandwich Day.  Definitely couldn’t let this one get by without a proper tribute.  But I had a slight dilemma.  I am currently on grocery store restrictions aka it’s Eat Out of the Fridge/Pantry Week for us.  I have promised not to step foot into a store.  It’s killing me y’all.

    Roasted Garlic Bread Soup

    October 21, 2015 / 6 Comments

    We have a wonderful Used Book Store in town.  It’s in an old home, so imagine each section in it’s own little room, most complete with quiet reading areas.  On the day I discovered this Roasted Garlic Bread Soup recipe, Shelby and I went in opposite directions.  If I recall she was looking for books on the Dalai Lama and I was in cookbook heaven.

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.
