Fish Chowder {and a Fish! story}
Fish Chowder served in Bread Bowls. <—- click here for Bread Bowl recipe. I approached the seafood counter at Whole Foods without a plan. Which is often how it goes. I’m looking for the fish to speak to me. Someone to stand out in the crowd. On this day, the cod did more than speak….they sang to me.

Cod & Potatoes Poached in Milk {atop a Scotch Egg Sauce}
Cod & Potatoes Poached in Milk {atop a Scotch Egg Sauce}. The day started with a ‘fresh as can be’ 1 1/2 lb. cod fillet. No plan for it, just a piece of fish too good to pass up. What I was craving, quickly became my motivation for making this dish. What I was craving, would be made from the leftovers. I set out on a mission to find the right recipe, that the next day, would beg to be turned into…Fish Chowder. This brilliant non-plan to accommodate my craving, almost went very wrong.

Taco Salad {with Doritos}
Flash backwards to January, NFL Playoffs were underway and I was itching to host a Super Bowl Party. I decided to make this Taco Salad with Doritos recipe, in honor of my favorite Super Bowl Commercials, and share it on Lemony Thyme the week before the Big Game. That was the plan. Right up until our home team, the Falcons, got beat in the last round.

From the moment I first took a bite of this fabulous dish I knew. Chicken & Wild Rice Casserole and I were going to be life long friends. It’s the perfect combination of creamy, nutty, healthy goodness combined with the comfort that comes from a warm bowl of homemade chicken soup.

Southwest Skillet Corn
Southwest Skillet Corn. Come on fresh corn. I love you so. It really doesn’t matter to me how corn is prepared because I can’t think of a way I don’t love it. I’ve discovered over the past couple of years that roasting veggies like corn (or onions, jalapenos, poblanos, red peppers), over an open flame, intensifies their flavor and adds just a hint of smokiness. What a great way to give your favorite salsas and sides a little flavor boost.

Sage Roasted Chicken & Sausage {with Potatoes & Onions}
Lemony Thyme is certainly a favorite herb around here, but her sister Sage is a close second. I love this recipe from Nigella Lawson for Sage and Onion Roasted Chicken & Sausage. We’ve lightly adapted it to use boneless chicken breasts, turkey sausages, and we include potatoes to round out the dish.
