I couldn't find my recipe for lemon lush so I decided to see what I could find on recipezaar.com This recipe was much better than the one I lost, not too sweet, very light. Everyone wanted a second helping.

This is one of those standbys that never fails to please.You can use any flavor instant pudding.And I like to add 1/4 cup chopped pecans to crust before patting in pan.Rich,creamy and filling.

This was wonderful. I made half of the recipe (my husband and I are empty nesters) and it worked out very well. I did add a bit of lemon juice to the milk (which promptly curdled like buttermilk but it mixed well with the pudding) to make it more tart. Delicious!!
