Foodie Friday: Lemonade Pie

First let me preface this recipe by letting you know that it takes 5 minutes to make. It's probably closer to 4 but I'll throw in an extra minute in case you like to take some time to lick your spoon (I know you'll do it).

This post is of course for my weekly Foodie Friday recipe. Lemonade Pie is perfect for a refreshing and super easy summer dessert.

This post also serves as a lesson in improvising. The improvising comes in because the actual recipe calls for frozen lemonade concentrate.  I had already worked 8+ hours and when the grocery store was clean out, I decided I would take matters in to my own hands. The recipe below reflects my new version of Lemonade Pie and I promise I'm never going back to the original. I hope you enjoy!
