    This Lemon pie was terrific! I did cook it a bit because of the raw egg yolks, which didn't negatively impact the pie AT ALL! I also made a graham cracker crust, which went well with the lemon.

    This pie was soooo easy to make. I think it literally took me 5 minutes to put together. I used fresh squeezed lemon juice and WOW! This pie is packed with lemon flavor. Tart and just the way it should be. Better than my moms (shhh, don't tell her). DH LOVES IT!!! Neither of us like meringue so we just used cool whip. Very Good Pie! This one is going into the Hall of Fame.

    What a great recipe--easy and just the best texture. Not rubbery like some but did hold its shape to cut and serve. A friend gave me some meyer lemons which are sweeter than other types. I used grandma 2969's meringue. It looked like someone at Martha Stewarts kitchen made it. Thanks
