Strawberry Pie
The swelling was swift and scary. Several years back I got an allergic reaction that caused me to swell with hives. My doctor asked what I had eaten. I told him I just had a bunch of fresh strawberries and then shortly after the swelling began. The Benadryl worked fine, but I was not ready to give up strawberries. I had eaten them all my life. So with Benadryl close by, I tried fresh strawberries again; that was over ten years ago and I haven’t had a reaction since.
Well, its strawberry season and I am going to go picking soon. Our engineer at work gave me a pie recipe and it is good and easy. So get picking and here is “Tony’s Strawberry Pie” recipe. The only thing that might swell is your sweettooth or waistline. Enjoy….
Mix: 1 cup of water, 1 cup of sugar, 3 Tbls of Cornstarch, and 2 Tbls of White Corn Syrup; bring to a boil and stir mixture until it becomes clear and thick. Remove from heat and stir in 1 box of Strawberry Jello. Cut up fresh strawberries and fill a graham cracker crust. Pour the jello mixture over the strawberries until it is even with the top of the pan. Refrigerate overnight and add whip creme just before serving.
Tony brought in 3 pies today, it was sweet and good. Here was my slice, before and after. Mmmm.
