Phoenician's Key Lime Pie
I hope you all enjoy this Key lime pie. When I moved from Lebanon to Florida in the spring of 1999, the famous Key lime pie was new to me. It was a friend's favorite dessert so I kept playing with the recipe to get that wow flavor. I now live in North Bay, Ontario, where we only get Key limes twice a year, so sometimes I substitute them with fresh lime juice.
