To Kay Lafitte: It does say "Healthy and Diabetic Friendly". I agree, there isn't much diabetic friendly in the sugar content or cherries either.

Great dessert! I put the cherry pie filling directly onto the crust and dolloped the whipped topping on each serving if my guests wanted it, and of course they all did! As to the egg yolks and another way to use them besides scrambled eggs or omelettes, lemon meringue pie takes either 2 or 3 eggs for an 8" or 9" pie. My family eats the pie filling as pudding, no need for a crust or meringue!

To kaye lafitte: I don't think its suppposed to be a diabetic recipe, just one for dieters who are looking for lower fat recipes (notice the category above the recipe).

If this is a diabetic recipe, why is there 2 cups of sugar in this? I'm looking for diabetic recipes for my mom.
