    Who's brave around here?

    Okay, 2Big's pinto bean pie AKA mock pecan pie got me researching....

    Who's brave enough to try this recipe?
    http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Transwi...afe_Pickle_Pie

    It looks like you can low carb it by using the Splenda-sweetened pickles and subbing the sugar for a low carb sweetener. The cornstarch looks redundant due to the number of eggs in the recipe, but it can be subbed with a low carb thickener like guar gum.

    So....who's willing to step up to the plate?

      I think it might be good if for the sweet pickles, melon rind were used rater than cukes. I'm not sure what to use for pie crusts, though.

      My mom used to make watermelon rind pickles that were out of this world!

              I'd take a bite if offered. I wouldn't spend money on making it to try it. I enjoyed the vegetable pickle spread I tried in England a few years ago.
