As guest host I’ve chosen 4 recipes to showcase from the #CookBlogShare community to create an Easy Everyday Feast. There are gorgeous pulled pork buns with spicy wedges and an avocado salsa plus a stunning coffee cheesecake for dessert. A definite feast! Plus there is a bonus selection of Easter bakes!

This post was a first on Feast Glorious Feast! Instead of publishing a new recipe, I acted as guest host for the fabulous #CookBlogShare link party. I’ll talk more about the party and the wonderful recipes that I’ve chosen to showcase a little further down.

I have since hosted again, this time curating a Summer Picnic Feast and also featuring some extra fab sweet treats that you could also take on your picnic!

And again! This time as autumn was approaching, I put together a selection of dishes to create a feast packed full of comfort food. Plus there is a bonus selection of weekend bakes.
But first I took the opportunity to thank everyone who has visited the site, tried a recipe, left feedback, pinned my recipes onto their Pinterest boards, tweeted them, shared them on Facebook and just generally been lovely about it. Without you, I’d be crying into a bag of grated cheese wondering why no one wants to read my stuff!
Some of my biggest supporters, mentors and friends have come from joining the Productive Blogging Community which is a group set up by Eb Gargano to complement her ridiculously useful Productive Blogging website. Everything I have created and achieved has been a result of clicking on a random retweet from Mandy at Sneaky Veg just over 20 months previously. Kismet of the best kind!

So What’s Hot at Feast Glorious Feast?
I get great joy from reviewing my site statistics and seeing which posts and recipes are the most popular. So I thought this was a great time to reveal my top recipes! Brace yourself, it’s an eclectic mix!
In summary, you guys are really big fans of beige food! Beige food is tasty food so I’m with you!
Sunday’s bring me an entirely different selection of top posts. My British readers will be fairly unsurprised that they’re all super traditional fayre.
Wow the beige obsession is real!!!
What is #CookBlogShare?
#CookBlogShare is a wonderful way for a wide range of food writers, recipe creators and bloggers to come together and share each other’s recipes.

4 Recipes for an Easy Everyday Feast
I simply couldn’t resist the idea of rounding up 4 recipes from the week’s submissions to create a gorgeous everyday feast menu. I’m always looking for new recipes to combine into easy menus and this week is no exception!

Here I’ve included a pulled pork burger, spicy potato wedges and an avocado salsa all followed by a healthier take on cheesecake. I’m pleased that I didn’t resist!
Slow Cooker Pulled Pork from Apply To Face Blog
Here’s the hero of the meal!
Jenny over at Apply to Face is one of my favourite bloggers, she’s lovely, funny and makes the most amazing food. I’ve suggested more than once that I’d happily apply any of her recipes directly to my face!
Pork will forever be one of my preferred meats and it’s the only one that I don’t mind being cooked low and slow. So this recipe is perfect for my tastes.
Simply add a toasted brioche bun and your sauce of choice to complete the first stage of this everyday feast. If you don’t fancy a brioche bun, try making Breakfast Biscuits, warming them a little, buttering and then adding your saucy pulled pork.

Baked Chipotle Wedges from Curly’s Cooking
Every burger need chips! Or wedges!
With no peeling potatoes and no frying involved, Cat’s fab looking wedges with sweet and smoky chipotle seasoning are the perfect accompaniment to any burger, meat or bbq meal.
I know Cat’s a big pork fan just like me and we’ve bonded over a love of Korean Pork. In fact, this side dish was specifically designed to accompany slow cooked pork buns. I’m so pleased these recipes were linked up on the same week.

For an alternative side, you could try my Garlic Roasted Sweet Potatoes instead.
Avocado & Olive Salsa from Farmersgirl Kitchen
Up the veg content of the meal by turning a chunky salsa into a side salad.
With perhaps a little shredded lettuce too, this super simple but oh so very effective salsa will complement the pork and wedges brilliantly. Avocados and tomatoes are both natural bedfellows with smokey sauces, meat and wedges. I’ll leave it up to you whether you want to add tortillas to your feast or not (I say do it).
As an alternative, you could turn Janice’s crispy tortillas into a fab nacho dish. Simply layer the salsa and tortilla chips up with pulled pork, sour cream and melty cheese. I get hungry writing this stuff, but it’s a cross I must bear.
Avocado & Olive Salsa – Farmersgirl Kitchen
Other veg or salad side options include a simple Caesar Salad, Creamy Coleslaw or even this brilliant looking Texas Caviar from Penny’s Passion which has also been linked up this week!
Blender Coffee Cheesecake from Everyday Healthy Recipes
Gotta have dessert!
I thought I’d seen every cheesecake recipe going until Monika linked up her Healthy Coffee Cheesecake!
This unusual version which is made almost entirely in a blender is packed full of dates for sweetness, cashew milk for creaminess and a traditional biscuit base for crunch. It just looks so smooth, I’m totally beguiled.
It might be cheesecake on the healthier side but I’m not sure that would still be true for me because I’d be eating at least 3 slices!
Healthy Coffee Cheesecake – Everyday Healthy Recipes
There were lots of other fab dessert recipes linked up. Peppermint Crisp Tart from Foodle Club looks super intriguing. This Gin and Lemon Tart from Only Crumbs Remain looks like perfection and this Easy Rhubarb Bakewell Tart from Farmersgirl Kitchen is ideal as we come into the season.
For a snackier sweet treat you could try these Date Slices from Lavender & Lovage.
More Easter Bakes from #CookBlogShare
Whist it would have been remiss of me create another round up of Easter themed bakes after this fab post from Lost in Food, it would be equally remiss of my not to include some of those that were linked up this week. Because there are some stunners!
Speckled Easter Pinata Cake – Sew White
Easy Creme Egg Brownies – Easy Peasy Foodie
Easter Speckled Egg Drip Cake – The Baking Explorer
Easy Simnel Cake – Lavender & Lovage
No Bake Creme Egg Biscuit Cake – Gluten Free Alchemist
Creme Egg Pancakes – Sew White

Awesome round up Chloe, this will keep people going for the rest of the year in terms of inspiration, let alone 12 weeks.

It really is the downside of writing roundups….too much inspiration!!!

Great Round-Up Chloe! Thanks for sharing my biscuit cake.
With all the time we are likely to be at home, I foresee even more time cooking and baking ahead… Not sure I’ll be able to get any ingredients though… the supermarkets are surreal xx
Chloe says
Biscuit cake is a great storecupbard bake! Mind you I am told that not everyone keeps at least a kilo of chocolate in their cupboard just in case. Eeek!
Rosemary says
This is such a great round-up. The Easter bakes are spectacular and I am particularly liking the look of the Pinata Cake and the Simnel Cake with edible flowers!
Chloe says
Oh there really are some stunners aren’t there! I couldn’t not include them!
Corina Blum says
Fantastic round up Chloe! I would love to try Monika’s blender cheesecake and I love the Easter recipe inspiration as well. I’m definitely doing more baking at the moment!
Chloe says
Thanks Corina! It was a lot of fun to put together! There will be much more baking in many of our futures I think!
Choclette says
Haha, glad you got a feast in. Sounds fabulous. I’m looking forward to the Easter feast – as long as I can have a piece of everything you’ve highlighted here that is.
Chloe says
Me too!!! I think Easter feast would just be 17 courses of cake and creme eggs no?!
Jacqui – Recipes Made Easy:Only Crumbs Remain says
Thank you for hosting and this excellent first #CookBlogShare Feast. So much choice here but I’m thinking I have to make the pulled pork and the cheesecake and an Easter bake and….
Chloe says
It’s been great fun, thanks for trusting me!

Chloe says
Hmmmm. Pork 🙂
Janice says
Now that was a comprehensive feast of a post! Thank you for including my salsa in the round up, I am now craving that meal, including the coffee cheesecake.
Chloe says
Just can’t help myself… I’ll write a short and snappy post one of these days!!
Michelle Rolfe says
Great round up Chloe! Lots to choose from, think I need to book a dentist apt as I foresee a lot of baking ahead of me!:) thanks for hosting CookBlogShare this week. Michelle x
Chloe says
Ha ha! I’d suggest you just stock up on decent toothpaste, I doubt dentists will be open by next week!
