Mexican Tamale Pie
I’ve been wanting to recreate my favorite Mexican Tamale Pie since about the moment I began sharing recipes on Lemony Thyme. Which also happens to be when I realized that the most important part of cooking isn’t the recipe, it’s the ingredients.

Welcome Home Muffins
I made Welcome Home Muffins for my dear friend and co-worker Sabina. She has arrived home after having been overseas caring for her mom. I’m not sure there is anything more personal than caring for a parent. We lovingly follow in their footsteps until it’s time to venture out on our own. Then we look over our shoulder for their approval as we find our way. Often the road leads us back home.

Roasted Veggie & White Bean Chowder
Hanging on to every fresh produce summer moment over here on Lemony Thyme. I’m calling this soup Roasted Veggie & White Bean Chowder because it has a creaminess about it and chowders are amazing. The beautiful thing is the creamy came from the white beans not cream or butter. That puts this soup squarely in our Healthy Choices category.

Roasted Veggie Oven Hash {with Fried Eggs}
Hash is such a great way to use up the tail end of fresh veggies. I decided to oven roast my diced vegetables with just a little olive oil and seasonings vs. pan frying in butter. I’m taking baby steps towards Healthy Choices and Roasted Veggie Oven Hash with Fried Eggs keeps me right on track.

Veggie Pancakes Topped with Fried Eggs
Veggie Pancakes with Fried Eggs. The light coming through our back windows this morning is brighter than usual. The angle in which it reaches the kitchen creates a spot light. On to the stage steps these gorgeous veggie pancakes. I did not plan for this. When I opened the refrigerator door I was reaching for coffee cream. Instead out came zucchini, summer squash, asparagus, carrots and scallions.

Shrimp & Summer Vegetable Farro Salad
Shrimp & Summer Vegetable Farro Salad. Farro. Do you know it? I just discovered this beautiful grain and am a bit smitten. Besides it’s slightly nutty flavor and wonderful texture which I adored, it’s also high in fiber and packed with vitamins and magnesium (which has health benefits of it’s own, especially for women). Now combine Farro with fresh summer veggies and protein packed shrimp and you’ve got a power meal that will keep you satisfied.

Loaded Stuffed Cabbage Rolls
Loaded Stuffed Cabbage Rolls. As in…don’t hold back on the veggies. This was a fabulous way to work through the last few fresh veggies that needed to be eaten before it was back to the Farmers Market on Wednesday. This included a gorgeous head of cabbage that I was persuaded to buy (I just love farmers).

Veggie Frittata {Breakfast Burrito or Quesadilla}
“We can sleep til we get up.” That’s what we love about Saturday mornings. We did at least until we got a puppy. Now we “sleep til Scrappy Thyme gets up.” So while I lay in bed this morning waiting for her to call to us, I was thinking about breakfast. And how I might use up the mother load of leftover fresh salad ingredients that had taken over my fridge. That’s when I decided to make a Veggie Frittata.

Fresh Veggie Nachos {Sundays with Shelby}
Fresh Veggie Nachos {Gluten Free}. I love my kid. I know. We all do (love our kids that is). But I’m at that really great place you get to, when your ‘kid’ isn’t that much of a kid any more and becomes that cool friend you want to hang out with. For our most recent Sundays with Shelby outing, we went to R. Thomas Deluxe Grill.
