Yesterday I made a lemon meringue pie for our in-home celebration of the 4th of July. For the first time I did the filling from scratch in the microwave instead of standing over the stove stirring and waiting for it to thicken. I will probably never go back to the stove top. I also used the Pillsbury pie crust.
I used the following recipe except that I used half fresh lemon juice and half bottled (since I ran out of the fresh). Guess I modified it also in that I used 1/2 cup of cornstarch instead of the flour/cornstarch that the recipe called for. ANYWAY, it turned out great and my DH loved it!
Here's the link and here's the photo.
