Strawberry Pie!

It's strawberry season here. I made strawberry pie the other night and the kids asked for more. So I made three more last night! Children were claiming a pie or two for their own!

This recipe comes from the best kind of cook book! A church cook book! One that has all the pages splattered (or at least the pages with the good recipes!) and had to be rebound (big thanks to my cousin for helping with it!).

Here you go!

Strawberry Pie

1 (3 oz.) package strawberry Jell-o (about 2/3 cups)
1 cup water
2 TBS cornstarch
1/2 cup sugar
1 quart fresh strawberries
1 pie crust, baked, or a graham cracker crust

Mix Jell-o, cornstarch and sugar in pan.  Stir in water. Place on stove and cook until thick and clear (may take more than ten minutes) stirring frequently.  Pour into baked pie shell or graham cracker shell.  Chill 2-3 hours. (Optional: can top with whipped cream when ready to serve)

Notes: If you use a graham cracker crust it will taste better, but the crust will get soggy quicker!

I almost didn't add this photo due the shadow ~ but decided to keep it real! 😉
