Old-Fashioned Tapioca With Lemon Sauce image

One of my all-time favorites, this is one is easy on the diet. You can top this homey dessert with green grapes and orange slices for a pretty presentation. You can also use the lemon sauce over angel food cake or your favorite frozen yogurt.

This was my first time making tapioca pudding, and it turned out great! I was worried that the tapioca pearls would be too chewy, but they were actually perfect. The lemon sauce was also very good.
