This delicious recipe comes from the brand new issues of The 4 Blades Magazine – The Fresh Produce Issue.

I absolutely love cheesecake and I especially love cheesecake when it is the warmer months and using delicious summer fruits. This cheesecake is so incredibly simple to whip up that it has quickly become a regular in my house. You can change the fruit used based on what is on special or what is available. Summer berries such as raspberries, strawberries and blueberries are delicious! Sliced mango and passionfruit is another great combo!

Have you ever found yourself with a mountain of a particular fruit or vegetable when it’s in season? From time to time we’ve been given a whole tray of stone fruit or we’ve had friends that have had a bumper crop of tomatoes. It’s the worst when good food goes bad. So this month we’ve got a whole swag of ideas for all seasons.

• In summer the weather is warm and fruit is in abundance! You will find recipes for cherries, berries and nectarines, including our cover image, Nectarine, Honey and Almond Cheesecake. 
• Summer vegetables like tomato, zucchini and capsicum form the basis of great midweek meals. We think you will love Tomato Spinach Pasta, a real one-bowl wonder.
• Autumn fruits like figs, pears and plums will keep you warm as the weather cools. Pear and Honey Muffins may become a new lunchbox favourite. 
• We love to create meals with autumn vegetables. Beetroot, pumpkin and sweet potato are not only delicious but nourishing. Try the Creamy Thai Sweet Potato Curry.
• Winter is a wonderful time to cook up seasonal fruits and give them a new lease on life. Apples, grapefruit and rhubarb lead to wonderful cooked treats like Fruity Apple Porridge. 
• We will help you make the most of your winter vegetables. Cauliflower, potatoes and kale are great for healthy snacks like Cauliflower Quinoa Fritters.  
• Spring brings freshness, and our recipes using passionfruit, lemon and banana are no exception. The Grain Free Lemon Bars are a sweet low carb treat that will fool even the biggest sweet tooth.
• Bring that spring freshness to your meals with creations like a Spring Vegetable Tart. Spinach, leek, beans and asparagus are featured.
