| Healthy, non-bake, French Silk Pie |
What makes a chocolate based pie healthy? This one includes tofu into it, a good source of non-animal protein, and is actually non-bake as well! You simply just have to make the pie mixture, pour it into your crust and play the waiting game while it cools in the refrigerator! This makes a great option for someone that does not have the oven space to bake pies.

Recipe 3: Heart Smart Impossibly Easy Coconut Pie
Heart Smart Coconut Pie Source
Try this delicious coconut pie that uses fat-free skim milk, fat-free egg product and fat-free whipped topping, if you are into whipped cream on top. With only 2g of fat and 160 calories per serving, this makes a great pie to have later with the family after your holiday dinner! Again sugars are high, but it is expected in desserts.
