Actually, I am always on the look out for desserts that use fresh vegetables and fruits. I recently learned that using vegetables in cakes can actually help reduce the calories and the fat in them, making them more diet friendly and healthier, while still tasting delicious.
Most of us have made things like carrot or applesauce cake, bananna or zucchini bread, pumpkin or sweet potato pie, and fruit crisps and pies for years, so it stands to reason that other vegetables and fruits might be just as delicious in our baking.
Many of us would love to get our families to eat more vegetables too, so including them in desserts sounds like a great way to get everyone to eat their vegetables! I copied both your recipes to try out on my family!
BWA-ha-ha-hahaha!
