SHARING THE LOVE WITH PUHOI CHEESE
We are so thankful for the support of Puhoi Valley for their Sponsor of Cheese, every week we get a large supply of quality Fresh Cheese, that has been distributed around to Charities and organisations from the Hibiscus Coast to Auckland, Hamilton, Tokoroa and Rotorua. we are always on the look out for more Charities to donate to. Its Fresh its PerrrrrFect and it can also be Frozen.
Our Meals at Love soup have been a treat, we have been using it in our Soups, Pies, Salads, and Our Chef’s have made some delicious Frittatas from it too. This week we got some Brie and Camembert, which also can be Frozen. We sure enjoy creating some exciting dishes from having this supply of Cheese.

In a sandwich…Drizzle the inside of a baguette with olive oil and vinegar. Sprinkle some oregano and top with a slice of feta. Or in grilled cheese, use feta and olive oil instead of butter.
Use it to make stuffed mushrooms or stuffed peppers along with some olive oil, herbs, and breadcrumbs.
Use it with salads: Greek salad (tomato-cucumber-olives), lettuce salad along with spring onion or beet salad.
Pair watermelon or cantaloupe or grapes with feta, a perfect combination especially in the summer.
