I think this is a wonderful dessert. My family loves lemon meringue, but I have a house full of diabetics. This will defintly be made in my house.

This was a hit! And only 3.7g carbs in 1/8th of pie - that's great for the diabetic!

My husband and I are on a low carb diet, and I had been craving lemon pie. I made the filling as written using Splenda instead of Equal. I even added extra sweetener. I finally added part of box of sugar free vanilla pudding to it. It was so sour that I had to make whipped cream with the remaining vanilla pudding to go on top. I was truly disappointed with the result.

This is only 3.7g of carbs if you don't include the pie crust... just a caution to those who are following a low-carb diet!
