MOM'S STRAWBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Bake 9" pie shell according to it's directions and allow to cool.
• Clean and cut strawberries. Pour into pie shell.
• On the stovetop, cook the water, sugar (or Splenda), and cornstarch until thick. Cornstarch will lump as it heats and thickens so be attentive with a whisk. Add strawberry jello mix (the powder, not pre-made jello) and combine thoroughly. Allow to cool but not gel.
• Pour jello mixture over strawberries and refrigerate until fully gelled.
• Personally, I like it best if you pour the jello mixture over strawberries and allow to gel without chilling the strawberries. I think it takes away from the flavor when the berries get too cold.
