Ingredients
Instructions
- Dissolve the lime Jello in boiling water.
- Mix in the lime yogurt until well combined.
- On low speed, fold in the fat-free whipped topping until smooth.
- Pour the mixture into a prepared pie crust.
- Refrigerate overnight or for at least 2 hours until set.
Tips & Substitutions
For a tangier flavor, consider adding a splash of fresh lime juice or zest to the yogurt mixture. If you prefer a different citrus flavor, swap the lime yogurt for lemon or orange yogurt. You can also use a graham cracker crust for added texture. Ensure the Jello is fully dissolved before mixing to avoid lumps.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the pie chilled, garnished with additional whipped topping or fresh lime slices for a pop of color. It pairs beautifully with Cherry Supreme Salad for a refreshing meal. This pie is perfect for summer gatherings or as a light dessert after a hearty dinner. Consider serving it alongside Toasted Peanut Butter Sticks for a fun contrast.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If the pie has been in a crust, it’s best served fresh, but you can keep it covered to maintain its texture. Avoid freezing, as the whipped topping may separate upon thawing.
