Recipe: Low Fat Key Lime Pie

I LOVE Key Lime Pie. But it's not exactly the healthiest option out there. That's where the inspiration for this recipe came from. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

  • 1 box (0.3 ounce) sugar free lime flavor gelatin
  • 1/4 cup boiling water
  • 16 ounces light key lime pie flavored yogurt
  • 1 container fat free whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 prepared 9 inch reduced fat graham cracker pie crust
To Make:
  • In a large, heat-resistant bowl, dissolve gelatin in boiling water, let mixture cool 5 minutes
  • With wire whisk, stir in yogurt
  • With wooden spoon, fold in whipped topping -- be careful not to over-mix
  • Transfer mixture to pie crust
  • Refrigerate overnight, or at least two hours until firm.
