Healthy Girl Pie!

This pie is high in protein, extremely low in sugars, and very tasty! It's especially perfect on these warmer summer days approaching! It is very simple to make! The prep time is no more than 10 minutes and refrigerator time is approximately 3-4 hours depending on the coldness of your refrigerator. It is a perfect party recipe or dessert for yourself after a hard week of dieting and gym time! No matter what the occasion, I am sure you will be more than satisfied with it! Be sure not to wear a white shirt while making it, jello dye may splatter if you are not careful!
