Easy Cheese Recipes - From Bakes to Snacks
Cheese is one of my favourite ever foods, and this collection proves it rather thoroughly. Start with the classic Spinach and Artichoke Dip, Halloumi with Chilli Honey or the simple crowd pleaser Baked Ricotta. There are also cheesy pastas, breads, tarts, souffles, sides, party snacks and plenty of cheesecakes for dessert lovers.
Pumpkin scones were made famous here by a Queensland politician's wife Flo Bjelke-Petersen back in the 70's and I recall my first bite of one at my godmother's house. It was so soft and delicate that I reached for a second before my parents scolded me for not asking politely for a second one. So I adapted Maureen's recipe to suit pumpkin which is in season and I added rosemary for this upcoming Anzac Day and cheese for additional savoury flavour. And these pumpkin scones were AMAZING!
