food recipe: {NEW!} Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Bars, Gazpacho with Avocado, Zucchini Lasagna Rollups AND MORE!

Latest recipes from Simply Recipes.



Happy Monday, friends! We had so many great recipes this past week that I hardly know where to start! If it's hot and humid where you are, then our Gazpacho with Avocado and Corn is a sure bet -- I love the creaminess that the avocado adds. And you're going to want to hang on to this recipe for Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Bars, because I predict it will make frequent appearances at tailgating parties, potlucks, and bake sales this fall!

Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Bars

by Cindy Rahe

Chocolate chip cookie + cheesecake = chocolate chip cheesecake bars! Why choose one when you can have both?! Bonus: these cheesecake bars are ready in about half the time as regular cheesecake.

Think of these zucchini roll-ups as like lasagna, but without the pasta! Precooking the zucchini softens it enough to roll it up with some cheese and herbs. Top with a quick fresh stovetop tomato sauce, bake, and serve!

Gazpacho is meant for hot summer nights when turing on the stove is a chore. Add avocado and corn for a more complete meal! Gazpacho needs to be made ahead and chilled, but that also means you have lunch or dinner right in the fridge, ready whenever you are.

Pasta? Check. Roasted tomatoes? Check. Creamy vegan cashew sauce? Absolutely CHECK! This recipe is so simple, but it delivers big on both flavor and creaminess. Make the cream sauce ahead of time and dinner is ready in no time.

Use this creamy vegan cashew cream sauce in place of dairy-based salad dressings and pasta sauces! Just because you're not eating dairy doesn't mean you can't have something creamy in your meal. Make a big batch and use it all week long.
