Frozen Citrus Pie

Hi Everyone!
This delicious recipe is from Andrew's mom Lynette, who just recently joined us as a "contributor" to the blog. She's currently still trying to figure out the innerworkings of creating a blog post, so for this first recipe, Andrew and I will be publishing it.

**FYI: Andrew and I are in the process of making some "how-to" directions for creating a blog post, including little tips we have found to be helpful along the way, which can hopefully make posting a little easier for those of you haven't quite figured out how to post yet. Andrew and I are by no stretch of the imagination "pros" at blogging, but we hope that by sharing these directions, we can get a few more of you blogging on here. Although we've gotten a little behind in posting, we would still love to keep this thing going and continue sharing our own recipes as well as reading about the kitchen creations of our family members! **

Lynette emailed this recipe to us last week and I think it sounds like the perfect summer dessert. Plus, it seems really easy to make and doesn't require any baking. Thanks so much for sharing! We can't wait to try it!

Frozen Citrus Pie

1 can (6 fl. oz.) frozen lemonade concentrate

1 pint vanilla ice cream, softened

3 1/2 cups thawed whipped topping

Yellow food coloring, if desired (I don't use)

1 graham cracker pie crust

Place concentrate in large mixing bowl and beat about 30 seconds. Gradually spoon in ice cream and blend. Fold in whipped topping and add food coloring (if desired), whipping until smooth. Freeze, if necessary,until mixture will mound. Spoon into graham cracker pie crust. Freeze until firm---at least 4 hours. Serve frozen pie slices. Store any leftover pie in freezer.


Yum!
