[Sca-cooks] Sugar free pecan pie recipe

I will certainly try this one.  I had one that used sugar free log cabin
syrup and splenda, but was just sort of floored at the idea of a sugar free
honey.  I am going to try one with stevia, mostly because it works so well
on strawberries, even makes them juice, and is a little sticky.  One of my
guinea pigs is a new diabetic, and dearly loves the sticky stuff.  It might
serve to make pecan sticky buns too.  I will keep everyone posted.

BTW, my one OLD diabetic won't touch anything with sugar in it, honey in it.
 Uses the pink stuff exclusively. Since this one is on insulin, and
controlled, I don't want to push the point.
