    This is one of those ugly but tasty desserts that reminds me of my childhood. In the 1970s, my mother and I joined Weight Watchers and one of the standard recipes was a microwaved custard with canned pumpkin, can’t remember the other stuff in it, but it was a crustless “pie” that we ended up making all the time. We didn’t even know about SuperFoods back then, and that this was actually healthy for reasons other than the fact it was fat free or low fat. We just were tickled with the fact we had a pumpkin pie dessert. When we cheated on Weight Watchers, we would take a piece of cinnamon raisin bread, toast it, and then roll that out on the counter w ith a rolling pin until it was flat. Then we’d take the custard out of the cup, drop it on that flat bread, and roll it up. That was our “really extra special fancy pie.” A hand pie, I suppose?

    So even back in the 1970s I was making “diet food” and still a m. We just call it “clean eating” now. :)

    So when I saw this, I had to make it, and I called Mom and said “remember those pumpkin custard cups …” and we both laughed at what we thought was just such a terrible way to cheat on WW, but so tasty.

    This reminds me of my teen years. Thank you.

    Oh, and it’s just as tasty now as it was then. No raisin bread needed.

      You’ve made us laugh — we have similar memories. We remember most grinding up a piece of bread with an egg, adding spices and making a “fake pancake” — ? We also made the Pizza Lunch pretty often. Thanks for sharing your memories. And commenting on our recipes!
