Nice lemony flavor and very easy pie to make. But it was very, very sweet, for us. Also, if I make again, I will go along with the advice of some of the reviews and use another egg or two for a thicker/higher meringue topping.

Followed according to recipe. Thought it was good but would be great (for me) if it were a tad bit more tart. Also could use more merinque on top.

I have used this recipe for years, and everyone in my family loves it. The only thing I do differently is to use 1/2 teaspoon of lemon extract instead of vanilla.

This is a great pie. It's easy, delicious, and uses items that most cooks keep on hand. I doubled the filling and used it for 1 9-inch pie and 4 mini pies. I overbeat the meringue, but that was my fault. So it wasn't all fluffy and nice like a meringue should be, but it still tasted good. The filling was cool, creamy, tart and sweet. I used Graham Cracker Crust II for this. I like how you get the taste of a lemon meringue pie without the work!

This is the recipe my Great-grandmother used and the only one my family likes. It is sweet, smooth and creamy with a delicious lemon flavor. The recipe is so easy and turns out great every time.

I have used this recipe for years & it is great. When I make it, my husband tells me to make 2. One for the family & one for him. I usually double the meringue tho, I like it thicker. It's a crowd pleaser!

I must admit that part of the reason that this came out so badly was because I had never attempted a lemon meringue pie before & did not really know what to expect in preperation. Still, these directions were terrible & the only way to make this pie taste better would be to set it on fire & go buy a good one instead. I shudder every time I remember the taste of it.

Very simple, good alternative to the 'traditional' lemon filling- they were fighting over second helpings! (added an extra egg white into meringue)

Quick, easy, and delicious. I only use 2 egg whites for the meringue and add 1/4 cup sugar to it. I also use a little less lemon juice.

Almost Momma's recipe. Except she used 3 eggs (yolk and white) and 1 Tbsp of sugar per egg white for meringue. She also added in lemon zest with the lemon juice. Be sure to completely seal pie with meringue, leaving no holes.

My husband didn't care for it, he said the meringue was eggy. Go figure. I got compliments from everyone else that tried it. One weird thing though, the recipe calls for vanilla but no where in the directions does it tell you to use the vanilla.

Easy recipe that becomes great with some changes. -additional egg for the meringue -1/2cup of sugar to the meringue -fresh lemon juice, a full 3/4 cup. -1/4 cup of sugar to the lemon juice. A regular pie crust works great with this recipe, and be sure to cook the pie until set, and then add the meringue! It took abou 15 minutes to brown the merginue, be sure to watch it though!

The recipe makes a terrific, easy lemon meringue, which was a big hit. The directions on the meringue should include the addition of vanilla in the final beating process (inadvertently omitted in the directions), and I recommend increasing the amount of meringue on the pie, since the amount in the recipe does not make a very high meringue top. I used low-fat sweetened condensed milk, and it turned out fine, with no impact on the consistency of the pie. It has great flavor and consistency.
