Carrot cake is delicious but it can pack a lot of fat and calories too. Our makeover slims down this favorite dessert by cutting calories by a third and cutting fat in half. Send your firehouse recipes, photos and nutrition tips to firehouserecipes@iaff.org.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's new MyPyramid plan and tracker help you choose and keep track of the foods and physical activity that meet your needs. It is a great tool for fire fighters seeking to balance diet and exercise.
