Directions:
Melt margarine on medium to low heat. Roll graham crackers into
crumbs with rolling pin. Mix crumbs and melted margarine. Pat to make
crust on bottom and sides of pie pan. Chill.
Add cold evaporated milk to Dream Whip (do not add vanilla). Sprinkle
in 24 pkg. Equal. Mix and beat according to directions. Beat egg yolks
slightly, and gradually stir in lemon juice. Gradually fold in the
whipped Dream Whip. Spread in pie crust. Turn on broiler so it will
get hot. Beat 3 egg whites frothy (use clean beaters so whites will beat
up as fluffy as possible). Add 1 tbs. sugar and beat until blended
in. Add another tbs. sugar and 3 Equal pkg. and beat until soft peaks
form. Spread meringue over top. Spread meringue to stick to the edges so
it won't shrink when you broil it.
Put under broiler for 30-60 seconds until meringue is lightly browned.
IT DOESN'T TAKE LONG AT ALL AND IS EASY TO BURN. The flavors will blend
better if you chill for 5 hours. Nutrients per serving: Calories 144,
