Since we try to eat sugar free we love this recipe. It is so easy to make. In the summer when you want a cool blast, freeze it. Good chilled or frozen!

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pkg sugar free vanilla instant pudding mix (1 oz boxes)
1 pkg sugar free crystal light lemonade drink mix (1.5 oz)
6 pkg artificial sweetener (splenda, truvia, etc)
2 1/4 c fat free milk
8 oz sugar free whipped topping
2 graham cracker pie crusts (purchased or homemade)

Steps:

  • 1. Combine dry pudding mix, dry Crystal Light Lemonade drink mix and the sugar substitute sweetener. Add milk and beat with a wire whisk until mixture is thickened. Fold in the whipped topping. Spoon into the graham crusts. Cover and chill at least 3 hours or freeze for 8 hours.
  • 2. Options: Substitute other flavored dry drink mixes for the Cyrstal Light Lemonade (using 1.5 ounces measurement) such as Koolaid flavors, Propel, etc. Just experiment and have fun! If you don't need sugar free make it without sugar free ingredients. I'm considering substituting dry Jello crystals for the Crystal Light and see what happens.

I'm a retired chef, who just happens to have diabetes. So the recipies that I post here on "Just a Pinch" will be both diabetic and normal. Some will be recipies that I have collected over my 36 year career, some will be right out of my own coconut (head). This is my favorite dessert, bar none. I hope you enjoy it! Bon...

SUGAR FREE LEMON MERINGUE PIE



Sugar Free Lemon Meringue Pie image

I have taken this pie to many parties and functions. Unless asked, I don't let anyone know it's sugar free and they love it anyway. I got this from a cookbook of diabetic recipes which I lent to a co-worker and she never gave it back before she moved. I found the recipe again on the Equal website. (Whoops, forgot to put the word BAKED after the pie crust. It would be a little gross if the crust was raw. lol)!
