Grandma Darcy gave me this acorn squash pie recipe many years ago. Since then, we always have her squash pie on Thanksgiving instead of pumpkin, and we like it much better!

- 1 can evaporated milk , 12 ounce

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons salt

Cheesy Kale Chips
An addictive alternative made with nutritional yeast. Who would have thought that leafy green chips loaded with nutrients could be so addictive? Nutritional yeast is deactivated yeast; it's not alive and has a slightly cheesy flavor which many vegans like to use as a cheese substitute. It can be found at most health food stores and some big-chain grocery stores.
