Fruit and Cream Pie

Submitted by Sweet PQ?

"I was surprised I couldn't find this recipe on 'Zaar. It's an old stand-by from a pamphlet called "More Jello Recipes". You can vary the flavour of this pie by changing the flavour of the Jello and matching it with an appropriate fruit. Example - strawberry Jello & strawberries - you get the idea. You can also subsitute sugar-free Jello. NOTE: Cooking time does not include chilling time."
