Dee Dee's Weight Watcher's Strawberry Pie image

My mom was a weight watcher and she made this pie all the time. It was really very good!!! Made me think of the Shoney's Strawberry Pie. If this strawberry pie is not my favorite low-calorie dessert recipe, it's definitely one of my favorites. The recipe calls for Equal and that's what my mother always used. I prefer Splenda.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll stick to my old standby recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of strawberries, but this pie was surprisingly good. The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was sweet and tangy.
