Healthy Pumpkin and Pecan Pies
Do you love pumpkin and pecan pies, but hate the calorie count? Food Network author Ellie Krieger told Tonia's Kitchen about a way to make those pies a lot more low-cal. Ellie, the author of Comfort Food Fix told Tonia you can make these pies using lowfat milk (she wouldn't use skim), and a special lower-calorie pie crust that she describes in her book. Toss in the classic spices that come with these fall dessert classics, and you have something that will expand your palate, without increasing your waistline!
