Meyer Lemon Herb Butter

This is one of my favorite ways to spice up veggies- especially when they are steamed! It tastes really great on bread too, but I'm trying to keep it healthy... It's a fun and easy twist on butter (you can use margarine if you want too). I make it into a log and freeze it so I always have a quick way to add flavor. I happened to have Meyer lemons this time, but I've done this with regular ones too and it still tastes yum!

Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature

zest from 3 Meyer lemons

1/2 tbsp Meyer lemon juice

3/4 tsp sea salt

1 tsp dried thyme, crushed between your fingers

Directions

1.  Mix everything together in a small bowl until there are no lumps of butter.

2. Store in fridge until ready to use.
