1970's French Strawberry Pie

Servings:

My mom made this 1970s French strawberry pie for our family in '72. I totally loved it then, as I do now! Very quick and easy to make. My mom used to make homemade crust, but I always have trouble with mine, and I recently found Keebler ready-made shortbread pie crusts!
