A Slice of Pie

As sweet as the title character from Waitress it's named after, this simple concoction is easy to make and will bring a little bit of the tropics to your Labor Day get-together or end-of-the-summer barbecue.

Jenna's Coconut Sweet Lime Pudding Pie

1 Shortbread or Graham Cracker Pre-Made Pie Crust
1 16 oz package Vanilla or French Vanilla Pudding (I used regular, but sugar free/fat free would probably work, too)
1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
1 cup of lime yogurt (I used the 4 oz Fiber One Lime Yogurt, but any lime flavor but fruit-on-the bottom would likely work)
1 8 oz tub whipped topping (I used Acme's lite, but any regular flavor will do)
1 tsp lime juice (more if you like your pie extra lime-y)
2 tsp green food coloring (optional)

Make the pudding as directed on the package. Add 1/2 a cup of coconut, lime yogurt, lime juice, and if you wish, food coloring. Spread in the crust; set crust aside. Scoop the whipped topping into a second bowl; add the remaining coconut and mix. When thoroughly blended, pour over pudding layer. Put the pie in the refrigerator. Let chill for an hour.
