OK. The bottom layer of the pumpkin pie is made. It's a base most like a pumpkin pie with a crusty top of pecans made with brown sugar and butter. Tomorrow when it is fully chilled we will add the pumpkin pudding filling on top and when that cools add a layer of low fat real whipped cream. I'm getting anxious now. The house smells so good.
The results are in. No chads in this one. In a word. Delicious. Now we had to ad lib a little here this first time. For some unknown reason the base layer cooked up higher than usual so we couldn't pour the pudding on top in the pan. So not to fret we simply spooned the pudding on top of the pie filling base in the dessert bowl and then covered them both with a thick layer of low fat real whipped cream. I'm all comfy now. I'm good for at least 4 more hours of gaming now. Now next on the list will be the tomato experiment with bacon. Stay tuned.

Great report, Noma! And I'm so glad it turned out so well; sounds like quite a colossal yummy mountain.
I'm curious, how did you do the crust? Or did you do a crustless pie, just a baked custard?
I love to read about your culinary experiments - reminds me of my spouse playing in the kitchen! I don't think he's ever nuked a plate to death, but he's had a few other catastrophes I could describe, so don't feel badly; you are not alone.

Is that with the tomato pie recipe I posted? Please let me know how the variations come out! I also thought of one that uses only swiss cheese - like a vidalia onion recipe I have!

Noma - It really is! It is similar to the tomato pie, but you use vidalias and swiss cheese! Just substitute the onions for the tomatoes, and only use the swiss!
Of course YOU are gonna be adding Jalapenos or some such!
