ou'd never guess that this healthy carrot cake is both low-fat and sugar-free! Feel free to substitute any nuts of your choice for the walnuts (we love it with pecans, too).

Carrot cake and pancakes together? Now, that's a breakfast we can get behind! These flavorful carrot cake pancakes might taste indulgent, but they're low in both fat and calories. Top with low-fat cream cheese and a drizzle of maple syrup for an even more decadent morning meal.

These carrot muffins are made with applesauce instead of oil to help retain their moisture while lowering the fat content. Studded with pineapple and raisins, they would make a sweet treat for breakfast or an on-the-go snack.

The original recipes calls these cupcakes. By substituting whole wheat flour, and applesauce for a portion of the white flour and oil, I made them healthier. I also used Splenda instead of sugar. I eliminated the cream cheese icing originally called for and decided to serve these as muffins! My kids love these, even requesting them for birthdays. For special occasions I go back to all white flour and add the icing! Otherwise--they make a great breakfast muffin or snack!

This yummy juice is super easy and hits the spot!

Carrot cake is one of the most popular desserts in America. Try this delicious one for real good eating anytime.

This soup is so simple, with the main ingredient being only carrots, and no potatoes or cream to thicken it. I'm sure there are many directions in which the flavors could travel, but I prefer to make it with a predominantly Indian taste. Feel free to adjust the spicy-level as necessary. I like it with a moderate to intense heat, but you can add more or less cayenne and crushed red pepper to suit your own taste. The final product should be smooth and evenly blended, so you will need some kind of food processing device to get it right.

A low carb carrot cake, I used a little honey (1 tbs), but you can use any sweetener you choose.

After serving that Sunday or Easter ham, save the bones to make this hearty and delicious soup. This soup is definitely comfort food, at less than 100 calories per serving.
