LIGHT AS A TROPICAL BREEZE LIME PIE



Light As a Tropical Breeze Lime Pie image

It's a light and refreshing dessert, reminiscent of key lime pie but much healthier. I'm not sure who to credit: I've had it for years and it could have come from a nutrition class or from Weight Watchers, but I know I've made it several times with good results and compliments. You can adda a can of crushed pineapple and/or coconut to make it more "tropical," but I actually prefer it as a light Summer dessert or a foil to a heavier meal. Cooking time is the chill time here, preparation time includes all "stove time."

Tips:

- Use a pre-baked pie crust to save time and effort. - Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients. This will help to ensure a smooth and creamy filling. - Use fresh fruit for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh fruit, frozen fruit can be used as a substitute. Just be sure to thaw it completely before using it. - Don't overmix the filling. Overmixing can make the filling tough. - Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will help the filling to set and the flavors to meld.

Conclusion:

Tropical Breeze Pie is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The creamy filling and the tropical fruit topping are a perfect combination. This pie is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
