Recipes by Millie Slavin: Fruit Yogurt Pie; Sweet and Sour Meatloaf



Millie Slavin's Fruit Yogurt Pie

1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers or vanilla wafers
1/4 cup sugar
6 tbsps. melted butter
1 tsp. cinnamon
2 cups prepared fruit: blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, peaches
or bananas or same amount dry-pack frozen berries
2 containers fruit-flavored yogurt
1 1/2 pints heavy cream, whipped or one 9-ounce container whipped cream

Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, butter and cinnamon. Press mixture into bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Spread half the fruit on bottom of crust.

Combine yogurt and whipped cream; spread over fruit layer. Arrange remaining fruit over top of pie.

Chill at least 4 hours before serving. Serve very cold. Makes one 9-inch pie.

Thoughts: Miss Slavin says, "This is an easy dessert. It's especially delicious if you use yogurt flavored with the same fruit as the fresh or frozen fruit, like strawberry yogurt and fresh strawberries."

A mixture of strawberries and bananas also makes a delicious combination. Feel free to experiment.
