Looking for good bread recipes that have fresh veggies in them. Anyone?

You could try allrecipes.com or epicurious.com. They usually have pretty good recipes.

Kraft kitchens has good recipes also. These are simple recipes with things you already have in your fridge and cupboards.

a hint for baked goods-and rave for allrecipes

I love allrecipes.com.

To up the nutrition content and bump down the fat in baked goods, I do the following.....

substitute whole wheat pastry flour for white flour (the ww pastry flour can be found in bulk sections, health food stores and in well-stocked larger groceries-it gives a tender crumb compared to regular ww flour.)

substitute 1/2 of the fat w/ buttermilk (in cake, muffins, quick breads-not cookies unless you want to make them bar cookies)

don't forget pumpkin bread and muffins-pumpkin is so overlooked and it is such a nutrition powerhouse.

I second the recommendation for pumpkin bread, I make it every year, it is very yummy. My recipe comes from The Joy of Cooking cookbook, a very popular cookbook.

You can also reduce fat in recipes that call for oil by replacing some (I'd guess up to about half, but experiment) of it with applesauce.
