This pumpkin custard pie has delicious flavor, thanks to caramelized pumpkin puree and fall spices. Baking the hot filling in a chilled crust produces a smooth and shiny, good-textured custard and a well-baked crust for this holiday dessert. Works well with crumb crusts too, such as graham cracker or gingersnap.

Easy Strawberry Yogurt Cake
Many strawberry yogurt cake recipes list a mix as the first ingredient, but I like making my cakes from scratch. My whole family loves this moist cake made with strawberry yogurt and fresh strawberries topped with just a dollop of whipped cream.
Alex's Raw Chocolate Pudding
It may seem odd to have a banana and avocado in the same recipe, but the banana completely hides any taste of the avocado. The avocado is there simply for texture and nutritional value. Even my kids love this recipe! You can use any unsweetened milk in this recipe - almond, soy, rice, or coconut - and for a little crunch, use raw cocoa nibs instead of the cocoa powder.

Quick, juicy burgers. My friends and I eat them at least once a week!
