Butternut squash helps slim down this macaroni and cheese. You can't taste it, and it boosts the nutritional value of the dish!

At 215 calories a piece, let's face it: This is more of a cake then a bread! Sooooo good though. My favourite banana bread recipe. :)

My favorite Mexican restaurant serves a guacamole that's heavy on vegetables--and flavor. To slim it down even more, serve with carrots, celery and cucumber slices.

This is a good way to sneak in some extra veggies. Using canned pumpkin makes them super-moist without the added fat of butter or oil.

These basic muffins can be modified in many ways. Some of my favorite additions are chocolate chips and dried cherries, dried apricots and walnuts, or a jam filling.

So very moist and NO ADDED eggs or oil!
Obviously mayo is made from eggs and oil. Also, I use Hellman's (Best Foods) Light Mayo but it is still pretty healthy with regular. Moistest cake ever though. The family loves it. For real decadence frost with Sander's Frosting. YUM!

These healthful muffins freeze well! Low-fat buttermilk and applesauce help lower the fat in these, and the whole-wheat flour and flax seed add fiber.
