Eggless Butterless Tomato Cake / Healthy Tomato cake

     Tomato cake...... doesn't it sound weird!!!  Yep when Valli gave me the theme " Dessert using vegetables" for Blogging Marathon, I first thought to prepare halwa verity for 3 days, but amount of ghee and sugar used in it stopped me with one. Then I decided to make some healthy one where I can treat myself with out any guilty feeling.  So I started to do some research with tomato which was overflowing in my refrigerator and end up with this lovely cake from love food eat, Which scored maximum points in my checklist.  The original recipe call for vinegar and I replaced it with ¼ cup yogurt and increase ¼ cup oil to ½ cup oil.  Try this easy breezy cake and sure you will end up with making again and again...
