Happy Meatless Monday folks! I spent the weekend back out at my parents place, on the fringe of Melbourne, for a wholesome country weekend with B and some friends of mine.
Recipe: Peanut Butter Cheesecake
I first participated in the Sweet Adventures Blog Hop back in August when the delightful Sophie hosted a cookie theme (to which I took my white chocolate & macadamia cookies). For some reason I didn’t get around to taking part in the next two SABH, but when I saw that this month’s theme (hosted by Nic from Nic cooks) was cheese, I knew I had no choice but to participate!

Recipe: Mushroom & Spinach Macaroni and Cheese
Mushrooms appear in my veggie box with somewhat regularity and I always find ways to use them by adding them to pasta sauces, throwing them in stir-fries or curries or cooking them up for breakfast (which is B’s favourite way to eat them!). I rarely make them the star of the dish though, so when I got a large bag full of little button mushrooms in my last veggie box delivery I decided it was time to change all that, and went hunting for a mushroom focused recipe to try out!
Recipe: Carrot Cake
I love carrot cake – it has consistently been one of my favourite cakes for years now, possibly influenced by the fact I love carrots in anything! I particularly like it when the cake is heavy on the carrot and walnut, and the addition of some sultanas never goes astray. Topped with a lemony cream cheese icing and I’m a very happy camper. So when my housemates requested a carrot cake I was more than happy to oblige and happily set about making one that met all my criteria!
