Lemon Pie

My popular request here is my Lemon Pie recipe.  I have adapted this recipe from the one in the "New Farm Vegetarian Cookbook."

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups of sugar (if you use Michigan or Pioneer brands, they are vegan, they are made from sugar beets.)

1/2 cup of corn starch

2 cups of water

Grated rind of 2 lemons

1/2 - 3/4 of a cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice.

3 tablespoons of margarine

1 prepared pie crust (since I am lazy I use a graham cracker crust, Keebler is vegan.)

Directions:

Combine sugar, corn starch and water in a sauce pan, heat over medium heat until it comes to a boil.  Once it comes to a boil, stir continuously for 3 to 5 minutes until it is thick and sort of opaque in color.  Add margarine and stir until well combined.  Remove from heat and stir in lemon zest and lemon juice.  Pour into pie crust and chill for at least an hour in the fridge.
