Beat flour, sugar, butter and salt in a large bowl until crumbly (mixture will be dry) and then press firmly into the bottom of your pan.
Bake until light, golden brown, usually about 20 minutes.
While crust bakes, prepare your filling by mixing all your remaining ingredients (except pecans) until well blended.
