Usual, not-healthy pumpkin pie recipes call for 3/4 cup sugar, 2 -3 eggs (yolks!), and 1 12-oz can of innocent-sounding evaporated milk. Yikes. One 12-oz can of fat free evaporated milk has 45 g carbs, which quickly break down to 12 tsp sugar (that's a candy bar). Then there's the lardy, sugary, floury pie crust. This healthy, high protein recipe serves 8 at 112 calories per serving, including the no sugar Healthy crust. (Make the crust first.)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Combine the first four ingredients in a small bowl.
- Stir pumpkin into skillet & heat slowly.
- Add the egg whites and cheese, stirring until cheese starts to melt. (If the eggs start to cook, remove from heat for a bit.).
- Mix in the Splenda and spice.
- Mix egg replacer well with the water, add.
- Stir whole mixture, pour into crust.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes.
- Reduce temperature to 350, bake 15-20 more minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- The cheese is what "binds." Blended with the egg whites, the two substitute beautifully for the not-healthy evaporated milk. (Fat free, nice, but as much sugar as a candy bar.) And you needn't bake at such high temps for so long, because you're not waiting for sugar to melt, egg yolks to cook - and you've already heated your ingredients.
