One of my fond childhood memories is eating strawberry pie that my mom made. I have tried to find a recipe similar to hers and at one point had her recipe although it is lost somewhere in a drawer or something, but I made this pie for the 4th of July lunch we had at a neighbor's house. It was definitely similar to my mom's. They were so good, and the kids loved them just as much as the grown ups. The best part is it is esentially no bake, so all you do is bake the premade crust until browned, and heat the filling on the stove top, easy as "pie".
Strawberry Pie
Ingredients:
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup cool water
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 package (3 oz.) strawberry gelatin
1 quart fresh strawberries- sliced
1 (9 inch) baked pie shell
Directions:
Put cool water, sugar and cornstarch in saucepan and cook over very low heat, stirring, until clear (about 3 to 5 minutes). Remove from heat and mix in gelatin and lemon juice. Arrange strawberries in pie shell and pour sauce over. Chill 4 to 6 hours or overnight and serve with Cool Whip or whipped cream.
