We can’t believe it’s been a year since we started Athletic Avocado! It doesn’t even feel like it’s been that long! It all started, like most blogs do, with a passion for healthy cooking and baking. We never would have thought that this blog would make the progress that it has (especially with photography!).
Thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way, we appreciate it! It’s been a crazy, yet rewarding ride! What better way to celebrate than with cheesecake?
We both love cheesecake, peanut butter, chocolate and strawberries, so we put them all together for a healthy, guilt-free, and most importantly delicious cheesecake!
