Easy Key Lime Pie

[NewCaneyFishingLady]

First, let me say, Key Lime Pie is not green. When David and I took a cruise that stopped in Key West, FL, we had our first look and taste of key lime pie. It was delicious and I have been wanting it ever since. Well, I now have it and so can you.

When I was restocking after Hurricane Ike, I was looking for lemon juice at Brookshire Bros. What do you know? I found a bottle of Mrs. Biddle's key lime juice with a recipe for key lime pie! After grabbing that, I went to get the graham cracker crust, sweetened condensed milk and the eggs. This bottle will make 4-5 pies, we are having our second pie tonight.

The recipe says that the pie can be topped with whipped cream or meringue but does not tell you how to make it.
