Here's another take on a holiday standby from the Baptist Diabetes Education & Management Center. My Thanksgiving dessert offerings didn't include pumpkin pie, which is probably why this caught my eye. I'll be looking for an excuse to try it.

1 15-oz. can pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling.
2 eggs or 1/2 c. low cholesterol egg substitute

Mix canned pumpkin, eggs and oil at low speed until well blended.
