As we talked about yesterday, the healthiest part of pecan pie is the pecans.  The good news though is that you don’t have to give up pecan pie altogether.  A few months ago I ran across a pecan pie recipe in Natalia Rose’s book The Raw Food Detox Diet.  This recipe is extremely easy and, I must say, tastes surprisingly similar to pecan pie.  When you look at the recipe you’ll see what I mean.  I’ll admit I doubted at first, but am happy to say the recipe proved me wrong!  This recipe has become a new favorite when I want a healthy treat.  Give the recipe a try and let me know what you think.
