With strawberries in abundance now, this is a good time to try something different and something good for those with diabetes. Also, this is for anyone who is watching their weight. I don’t remember who gave this to me or if the recipe is one of mine.
I think I tried this when I was on Weight Watchers because I used Butter Beads a lot. Anyway, I enjoyed this several times.
So did my husband, Gene, and Brock Hopper, who also was a Type 1 diabetic. This doesn’t call for fresh strawberries, but I like to add them (and/or bananas).
Sugar-Free Strawberry-Banana Pie

1/2 package Butter Beads (optional)
• Pour into lite graham cracker crust.
• Place in refrigerator until it sets.
• Cover with lite Cool Whip. Garnish with strawberries.
