No-Bake Key Lime Pie
Ever since I’ve known Gabriel, he’s made it well known that his favorite pie is key-lime. It took me forever to finally get around to making the traditional key-lime pie for him, probably partly because of this pie recipe. It’s just so easy. And tasty. You don’t even have to bake it. Frozen it’s one of the most refreshing hot weather treats I can think of. And did I mention it’s easy?

- Alternatively, fold the cool whip into the pie filling and then spoon into shell and chill.

- Also, you can make your own sweetened condensed milk. I used turbinado sugar to make mine, which made me feel better about serving this to my pie-loving toddler.
