  1. Followed recipe. Did not set up after 5 hours in refrigerator. Would double gelatin amount. Took 8 limes to get 1/2 cup of juice. Will only do 1/3 cup next time. Way to liquidy and very tart. It took approx 10 min in blender to get whipping cream whipped. Plus not enough. I would just use a suger free pre whipped whipping cream, thou home made tastes better. This is NOT a quick recipe to make. It is no way close to the estimated amount time to make. Still like the basics of the recipe. Will make it again, with adjustments.
     
  2. I made this recipe exactly as written here, and my pie just did not set! I might try it again but double the amount of gelatin. The favors are pretty nice though, and I can't wait for my dad, who's a diabetic, key lime pie lover, to try it. It's more like a tasty key lime pie pudding.
     
  3. Made a small adjustments. Used Oikos( by Dannon) triple 0 yogurt. ( no sugar, no fat, no artificial sweetner ) and fat free cream cheese. Juiced and zested 2 fresh organic limes. Delish!!
     
  4. Great diabetic pie. No funny after taste like most diabetic desserts. I'm not diabetic however, I make this for many diabetics and they love it. Awesome recipe.
     
  5. Very tasty treat for diabetics. The filling was creamy and sweet-tart and very easy to put together. Made for Fall 2009 PAC.

I love cooking and I especially love trying to find ways to make healthy, well rounded dishes that make me and my husband happy while on a budget. We have a dream to one day open up a luncheonette and gourmet deli in a small coastal town. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
