This cheesecake was delicious! I used a variety of vegetables, including zucchini, carrots, and spinach, and they all worked well together. The cheesecake was also very flavorful, thanks to the herbs and spices.

This cheesecake was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less cream cheese next time.

The cheesecake was good, but the crust was a little bland. I would add some herbs or spices to the crust next time.

I was a little skeptical about this recipe, but I'm so glad I tried it. The cheesecake was delicious and the vegetable crust was a nice change from the traditional graham cracker crust. I will definitely be making this again.
