This salad is packed with nutrients.

As a rule, half of the amount of fat in a dessert recipe can be replaced with applesauce or a puree of another fruit, such as prune puree. The result is a very moist, low-fat cake enhanced by the flavor of fresh and nutritious apples. The amount of sugar in this recipe has been reduced by one third, as compared to the original recipe. Use vegetable oil spray to prevent the cake from sticking to the pan.

Helpful Hint: Fresh berries taste great and cost less when they are in season. You can also thaw some frozen berries for this recipe.
