    Recipe Introduction


    No Eggs - Carrot Cake - by Michelle Jones
    (this is the intro from the web site)
    My husband grew up allergic to eggs, so when I saw the reader's request for a cake recipe for her daughter who suffers from the same allergy, I knew I had a recipe around the house somewhere! This carrot cake is made with olive oil, whole-wheat pastry flour and crushed pineapple, so as well as not having any eggs, it's also very healthy!

    If you or someone in your family has an allergy to eggs, I know finding recipes for cakes and other baked goods can be difficult. This recipe for Carrot Cake, adapted from Eating Well for Optimum Health, by Dr. Andrew Weil, M.D., is a great one to try. Enjoy!
