Full disclosure: this carrot cake oatmeal is one of my signature, sneaky oatless oatmeals with hidden & non-detectable secret veggies! In this case, there are two different vegetables masquerading as grains: spaghetti squash for texture and carrots, because carrot cake oatmeal. You may not believe me, but: you would never know about the veggies if […]
No Bake Maple Spiced Pumpkin Cheesecake
