Deceptively Delicious Banana Bread

I realized half way through that I didnt have eggs, so I made it without. The recipe calls for 2 lg egg whites, but was perfectly fine with none. You can also use veg oil if you prefer. A great snack anytime of day, my 2 yr old loves it and has no idea there is cauliflower in it!!! We only eat a small slice as our serving size so that is what is calculated, you may eat more if you have it for breakfast though....enjoy!Submitted by: SARAHTHOMAS1

Vegetable-Packed Guacamole

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. Submitted by: STEPFANIER

Mango Pinneaple Smoothie w/Mango juice

Soy milk can be replaced with regular milk and fresh pinnaple can be replaced with frozen (I like Trader Joe's Pineapple Tidbits).
Also, if you have one, it's easier to make in a single serve blender (The Bullet or the Rocket). Submitted by: RASEA09
