Homemade Lemon Curd

I used my one Meyer lemon to make a couple tablespoons of lemon curd. It is soooo good!

I baked a batch of banana nut muffins to eat it on.

I knew the lemon curd wouldn't last long so I made a batch of blood-orange curd too. I thought it would be a brillant red-orange color.

Wrongo - instead it turned out... a weird fleshy color. Like a band-aid. It tastes great... bright and citrusy... but it might need some food coloring.

Lemon #2

My scrappy little Meyer lemon tree has produced another lemon! Right across from it is a new bloom!

What to do with this one delicious lemon? I have my sights set on lemon curd. All the recipes requre 3 to 5 lemons though so I guess I'll be making about a tablespoon of lemon curd.

Waiting for yellow

Right before we left for Thanksgiving I noticed that my Meyer Lemon was finally starting to turn yellow! It's going to be a one lemon feast!
