Eat the pie....healthy pie!

Every southern woman loves a good pie! How do you keep that petite figure and enjoy pie? My healthy lifestyle change of eating all natural foods led me on a path to make recipes I could enjoy without jeopardizing my health and adding pounds to my petite frame. With strawberry picking season, came the creation of this new healthy recipe: I call it Belinda's Healthy Pie. It can be made with various fruits. My husband loves the combination of grapes and apples, but he also loves the combination of banana, pear, and apples. My favorite is the strawberry/ blueberry pie. I'm looking forward to making a strawberry rhubarb pie, peach pie, and cherry pie. The best part: the pie has no butter and no sugar! This recipe can be adapted to your favorite fruit, so go ahead my dear....eat the pie!

1st step: Pick fresh strawberries when possible! There is nothing better than freshly picked fruit!
