Submitted by vachefgrammy

"This delicious, sweet-tart pie was the result of not having enough strawberries to make a Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie. I added blueberries and raspberries to fill up my deep dish 9 inch pie pan."

Absolutely delicious, and so easy to make. I used the roll out refrigerated pie crusts. As an aside, I’m an 88 year old guy. I made this pie for my first post covid dinner party. There were six of us, with a cumulative age of 530 years! Yes, four over 90, me and my young 79 year old chick. John H.
