What a great carrot cake! So good and not greasy at all like some of them. I made this with cream cheese frosting which I coloured green as a "soccer cake" had been requested and it made a wonderful birthday cake for our large extended family. Between the cake and the icing it packed enough punch that more than the single layer was not necessary. This cake would work equally well without icing, as a take-along cake for school lunches, snacks, etc.

I found this recipe while searching for something that would use up some yogurt I had and what a pleasant surprise! Since I have a child who has to be on a low-cal diet I reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup, omitted the glaze (sadly, I'm sure it would have been yummy) and added some sliced almonds for a hint of protein. I used plain yogurt too. Reducing the sugar worked fine for me as I don't like overly sweet stuff and my son isn't supposed to eat it, but might not work for most people's tastes. The recipe is a wonderful key recipe that, besides lemon, could lend itself to all kinds of variations. I plan to try it with lavender this summer!

This was great. Nice flavours. The green peppers really made it. Great for lunches and in wraps.
