I reduced the sugar and used fat free evaporated milk. I used two whole eggs so the texture is the same as "regular" pumpkin pie.

Love pumpkin pie? Hate the guilt? The preservatives of the store made brands? This is an easy to make and bake pumpkin pie, best of all using fat free milk, egg whites, and low fat pie crust cut the calories and fat more than in half! This tastes great and is excellent with fat free cool whip!!! Feel free to make it full fat if you dare, or add a little bit more spices for more of kick. Great for thanksgiving!! Enjoy!

Holiday Pumpkin Pie without the Pumpkin
Makes its own Crust
Inspired by the numerous awesome pumpkin recipes on here. I saw similar recipes for pumpkin muffins but not for bars, which was what I wanted.
Delicious with a dollop of whipped cream. Stays a little softer on the inside thanks to all the pumpkin. :)
Feel free to substitute splenda for the real sugar, egg beaters for the eggs, etc. I used what I had.
Also: I prefer a nice amount of spice in my bars, but reduce the cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice if you don't!
A wonderful Autumn or Winter vegetable dish. Rich and satisfying, but light on calories.

Making applesauce couldn't be easier. Just 3 ingredients (probably ones that you already have on hand)! This recipe doesn't use sugar, because I find that it is not needed, but you could always add sugar to taste.

A lighter accompaniment to Turkey. All the flavors of Thanksgiving without swimming butter and sugar.
Dried cranberries (or other dried fruit) can be substituted for the fresh cranberries, if the fresh are not available.
Organic Brussel Sprouts are available in the fall/winter at your local Farmers' Market
