Lighter Pecan Pie
"A *super quick* recipe for those who believe that low-fat diets can't incorporate nutty desserts, here's a lighter alternative. I adapted this from Sweet 'n' Low's recipe. All I changed were the eggs to egg subs. I suggest using Sweet 'n' Low no-calorie Brown Sugar because the recipe is formulated with it. I don't think it will work with regular brown sugar, but you can certainly try! :) Let me know how it turned out! Use any crust of your choice."

I graduated from the University of Delaware's HRIM program in '06.
Been several years since I was last active and experimenting, but I'm coming back into it.
I used to be vegetarian (even had a touch of the veganism), and I still love me my veggies, but I also love me my meat. I will never stop liking tofu no matter what. Don't knock until you try it cooked PROPERLY. Tofu is so easy to mess up.
