  1. So light and fluffy! This has been perfect at early summer parties in Texas, where we need the cool smoothness of this pie. So easy to put together too! I added ginger snaps on top to garnish here. Thanks for sharing!
     
  2. I wanted to make this as a sugar-free (or at least, very low sugar) dessert and I looked in three stores and could not find the Jello sugar-free lemon so I used sugar-free lime. I kept everything else the same, so made a delicious lemon-lime pie! This is really rich tasting without the guilt, when made with Lite yogurt and Sugar-free Cool Whip. I think other flavors would be great also (omit the lemon juice and zest) I used Recipe #96877 for the crust. I also made Recipe #127540 as called for, but don't think I would next time. I would just add more grated zest. Thanks for a great dessert. Made for Spring 2009 PAC
     
  3. Nice recipe, although I found it to be a bit tart for some of my guests. I would probably reduce the amount of lemon juice, or use a smaller lemon, otherwise this pie has a nice creamy texture was looks pretty too.
