Shamrock Pie image

I have been making this pie every St Patricks Day since 1995. This pie is green, and with the white meringue topping looks scumpcious. It goes so well with your corn beef and cabbage, and Irish soda bread, a great finish to a special meal.Comes from Taste of Home.

This pie was easy to make and turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of crust. The one I used was a bit too dry.
