Get "As low as" price for bundle product in Magento

Question

I'm trying to display a list of bundled products using my custom template. I'm not able to display the dynamic price of the bundle product. Previously for simple products I used:

$product->getPrice(); 

which worked, but it just displays $0.00 for bundle items.

looking at ../catalog/products/list.phtml I tried

$this->$getPriceHtml($product, true);

after extending my block to Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_Abstract I got simple products working again, but bundle products still show $0.00

Is there another way to display the as low as price for dynamic bundle prices?

I cleared cache and reindexed and all that good stuff. The price shows up correctly under the default category list, just not under my custom page.

Update

I haven't been able to figure out an alternative. When I did a dump of the product collection, for the bundle product fields containing prices are as follows:

["price_type"] => string(1) "0"

["price_view"] => string(1) "0"
  ["_price_index"] => bool(true)
    ["_price_index_min_price"] => string(8) "475.0000"
    ["_price_index_max_price"] => string(8) "475.0000"
    ["tax_percent"] => float(9)
    ["final_price"] => int(0)

For simple products I only get:

["price"] => string(8) "248.0000"
 ["final_price"] => string(8) "248.0000"

so I suppose I could write my own function to grab the price depending on product type, but I'm guessing there's a better way...
