Frozen Pumpkin Mousse Pie image

A Recipe for a Healthier You: This past Tuesday as I sit in the doctor's office waiting to have my annual painless "Softer Mammogram" and there sits this recipe, so I picked it up. It sounded easy to make and delicious too, so I thought I would try it out. This pie may be healthier but that doesn't mean it isn't less tastier....
