Lovely easy to make pieJuly 20, 2008By lettuceeat
"I love the idea of using meringue as the pie crust it makes for a light tasty crust. The filing is very tasty too. I have made the pie twice once with the pineapple and once frozen cherries. I wonder if plain gelatin or something can be substituted for the heavy whipping cream to make it a little lighter in calories and fat."
