Looking for Lemon Meringue Pie recipe
#1
My boyfriend's favorite pie is lemon meringue, but all I can make are pumpkin and apple. Next week I'm going with a couple other friends to go to another friend's house about three hours away (he and his wife moved five months ago) for his birthday. We decided that since we're all going to be there for most of the week we could have an early Thanksgiving together while we're there. So I decided to try and test out a lemon meringue recipe in addition to making my delicious pumpkin pie recipe. But I can't seem to find a straight up traditional lemon meringue recipe. Anyone got the recipe I'm looking for?
