Reduced Guilt Key Lime Pie

Five years ago, I dedicated an entire month to pies on my blog.
I made so many pies that month it's amazing I didn't gain tons of weight.
Please remember that all posts are from 2011, but here are five of my favorites:
Lemon Meringue Pie
Mini Pumpkin Pies
Dutch Apple Pie
Chocolate Cherry Pie
Turkey Pot Pie

With all the pies I made, it's amazing I never made a Key Lime Pie.
I changed that recently though and made one,
but decided to try to make it just a tad healthier!

The Goods:
Graham Crackers
Brown Sugar
Salt
White Chocolate Chips
Butter
Reduced Fat Greek Yogurt
Key Limes
Eggs
Fat-Free Sweetened Condensed Milk
Whipped Cream

Crush your graham crackers in a gallon bag using a rolling pin.

In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup graham cracker crumbs,
1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1 ounce chopped white chocolate.
Add 2 tablespoons melted butter and toss until evenly moistened.

Press crumb mixture into greased pie pan and bake at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.

Cool completely on a wire rack.

While crust is cooling, in another medium bowl combine 1/2 greek yogurt, 
1/2 cup fresh key lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon key lime zest, 
3 large egg yolks and (1) 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk.

Pour mixture into crust and bake at 350 degrees for about 14 minutes.

Cool pie completely on wire rack. 
Chill at least 2 hours before cutting. 



And of course, serve with whipped cream!

  1. Electronic cigarette price that ranges from $60-$70 for the kit will be a better start Wholesale Cigarettes. The starter kit should already include 5 cartridges, 2 batteries and 2 chargers. It would be both a wall charger and a USB charger. Some electronic cigarette starter kit that cost more than $90 is bit expensive Cheap Cigarettes. Thus, you have to make that you get the best out of the money you spend. It is a better idea to start with the mid priced kits and see if it does work for you Newport Cigarettes.
