Strawberry Pie

The best way to eat fresh strawberries?  In a pie!  This one is easy to make. Make your own pie crust or buy one (I won't tell!)

Strawberry Pie

1-1/2 cups cool water

2 Tablespoons cornstarch

1 (3 oz) pkg strawberry Jell-O (or you can use sugar free)

1 pound (or as much as you can fit in your pie crust) strawberries, hulled and halved

1 pie shell

Pre-bake pie shell as recipe calls or as instructed from box or package.  Cool.

Meanwhile, in saucepan mix together water and cornstarch with a whisk.  Cook until clear, it will thicken. Remove from heat and add Jell-O.  Let cool for at least 10 minutes.  You don't want it to cook your strawberries.

 Add strawberries to cooled pie crust.

Pour Jell-O mix over strawberries taking care to make sure the strawberries have a little layer of the mix on them.  

Chill until set. Serve with whipped topping if you like.
