Easy to make on a hot summer day. Delightful dessert to enjoy at sunset with friends. Everyone loved it.

This was a good dessert for a family dinner. I used regular pudding and jello since I can't have artificial sweeteners. I tried slicing the strawberries with my egg slicer and two of the wires broke on the first one. I guess maybe the berries were a little too hard, but I won't be trying that again.

Easy to make with great taste! I made a home made crust, and did use more berries. The pie was a hit with my family. This recipe is a keeper.

I feel really stupid! I went to buy the ingredients to make this yesterday and the vanilla pudding mix was 4.6 oz. & the gelatin .60 oz. Can anyone help me figure out what to buy!

I used to make this for my family every summer, but I lost the recipe when I was redoing my kitchen. I am so happy to have it again. I i will make it as a treat this week!

AWESOME!!! My husband and I LOVE this pie, best low calorie dessert I have ever found. It is super easy and quick to make and tastes fantastic. I have made three in the last 10 days. I eat it every night after dinner as a treat, and it feels like I am cheating on my diet, but I am not. I wish I could find more recipes like this to help me . . . have lost 60 lbs in 10 months.
