Guest guest Posted August 21, 2000 Report Share Posted August 21, 2000 Donna requested a pecan pie made with pinto beans on one of my list that was from weight watchers well I asked around and so far got 3 pecan pinto pies From Nancy but not from weight watchers. The pies range from 4-8 points a slice but this can be reduced even more if you use Splenda instead of sugar. These recipes all call for at least 1 cup of sugar and that is 16 points alone (divided into 8 slices that is 2 points a slice right there) And since splenda is a ZERO calorie, Zero fat per serving you knock off 2 points per slice at least And you can bake with splenda unlike some of the other low cal sweetners. So If you feel adventureous try it Jenn Ottawa, Ontario, Canada http://tlotc.dhs.org/jenn/ * Exported from MasterCook * GRANDMA'S RAVEN'S PINTO BEAN PIE Recipe By : " NANCY L BERRY " in San Fransico <NLBERRY Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : 6 Point 8 Point Beans And Legumes Desserts Done By Dotties Calculator Nuts Pies Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 3 cups pinto beans, cooked -- unseasoned and mashed fine 4 eggs 1 1/2 cups sugar 1/2 cup 2% milk 2 tablespoons butter 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon allspice 1/2 cup pecan halves 1 pie crust, frozen Mix all the ingredients well. Place in an unbaked pie shell, top with pecan halves, and bake in a moderate oven (350°F) until done. This is a dessert that is more than likely good for you. JENN'S LOWER FAT NOTES: Use 1 cup egg beaters instead of the 4 eggs, use skim milk instead of 2%, and use only 1 cup sugar instead of 1 1/2 cups.
