Strawberry Pie

This was and is one of my children’s favorite pie recipes.  It’s loaded with fresh strawberries, is quite tasty and can also be made with sugar-free Jello if you want or need to cut down on some calories.  However, even with regular Jello, this pie is more figure-friendly than most other pies. It’s especially pleasing as the temperatures begin rising with a dollop of some sort of cool, creamy goodness.

Strawberry Pie 

In a medium saucepan, whisk together:

1 cup sugar

4 TBSPS. cornstarch

1 cup water

Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thick. Remove from heat.

Add:

1 small box strawberry Jello

Let cool for 30 minutes and then add 2 cups of fresh sliced strawberries.  Mix together well. Pour into a baked 9” pie shell and refrigerate until firm.

Slice and serve with Cool Whip, sweetened whipped cream or Redi-Whip.
