I am looking for a great Lemon Meringue Pie recipe and I am not having any luck. My mother had a great recipe when I was a kid but she lost it. If anyone has a good recipe I would appreciate it.
I've made several lemon pies but they've not turned out the way I wanted them to. The meringue seems to be my failure every time. If someone knows of a great recipe, I'm interested also.
Sounds like you and I need "Amelia Bedelia" lol. Don't know if you have read the book. Amelia was about to be fired until her boss tasted that pie. Any it looks like we all need a good recipe. Just adding my voice to those begging for a recipe. Thanks!
