     This is similar to a recipe that I have, but I use Stevia instead of sugar. Tastes great. - 7/1/14

     I donīt consider a recipe with store bought crusts to be a recipe. Might as well buy the pie in a store!
    + The fact itīs SO high in fat & sugar! - 4/5/15

     This is very good! I switched out the sugar with Splenda and made my own crust to cut down on the fat from the pre-made shell. - 7/1/14

     I no longer do crusts of any kind. I just do the cherry filling in a mug and cook it in the microwave. Lots less carbs and fats. And I keep on losing weight while having food fun. That works for me. - 7/1/15

     I cut back the sugar by about 1/4 cup - I like less sugar - I do the same when I make pumpkin pies too. Love the fruit taste! - 1/1/21
