Lemon Cream Pie






     You know that creamy lemony flavor that melts in your mouth with every bite, ... I sure do!  And I wanted about 8 pieces of it!  Each piece being only 102 calories, 9.5g net carbs and 6g protein, ...in fact with macros like that, I think TWO pieces are in order! ...more would just be wrong ...but if this is wrong I don't want to be right!  :)

Ingredients for 8 pieces of pie~
3/4 cup All Bran Cereal
1 Tablespoon Coconut Oil, melted
1 Tablespoon Lakanto Monk Fruit~use code Paige20 at checkout for discount
Small box sugar free Lemon Jello (.30oz)
1 cup boiling Water
Zest and Juice of one small Lemon
2 Tablespoons/1oz Cream Cheese, softened
1 scoop Quest Salted Caramel Protein Powder
100 calorie Yoplait Greek Lemon Yogurt
1 teaspoon Lemon Extract
1 cup Light Whipped Cream/Cool Whip
6oz fresh Raspberries, for garnish if desired (not included in macros)

     Grind cereal in Magic Bullet til powdered, pour into greased pie plate.  Add Coconut Oil and Monk Fruit to crumbs, mix til fully incorporated and press on bottom and half way up sides of dish, set in freezer while making filling.  Bring water to boil, remove from heat and stir in jello til dissolved, set in fridge to cool.  Meanwhile, zest lemon and set lemon curls to side and squeeze juice from lemon.  Stir Lemon Juice into softened Cream Cheese, then add in Protein Powder, and then add in Yogurt and Lemon Extract.  Pour cooled Jello mixture and Lemon mixture into mixing bowl and whip til smoothly blended and slightly frothy.  Remove crust from freezer and pour filling into crust, set in fridge to chill for 2 hours or more.  Once set, frost with Cool Whip and garnish with Lemon Curls.  Serve with Raspberries, if desired.  Enjoy  :)
