Ingredients:

  • Crust:
    • 1 reduced-fat graham cracker crust (store-bought or homemade, typically 8–9 inches)
      • (~10 points per 1/8 slice)
  • Filling:
    • 1 (14-ounce) can fat-free sweetened condensed milk (~24 points)
    • ¾ cup fresh lemon juice (~0 points)
    • Zest from 1 lemon (optional for extra lemony flavor, 0 points)
  • Topping:
    • Light whipped topping (like Fat-Free Cool Whip or homemade), optional (~0–1 point per serving)

Instructions:

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the fat-free sweetened condensed milk and fresh lemon juice until thickened and smooth. Stir in the lemon zest if desired.
  2. Pour the mixture into the reduced-fat graham cracker crust and spread evenly.
  3. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
  4. Before serving, top with a dollop of light whipped topping and a sprinkle of lemon zest if desired.

Servings & W-W Points:

  • Makes 8 slices
  • Estimated points per slice: 5–6 points on Blue/Green/Purple (mostly from the crust and condensed milk).

 Tips:

 Swap the crust for a homemade lighter crust using:

  • ¾ cup graham cracker crumbs (7 points)
  • 2 tbsp light butter or margarine, melted (4 points)
  • Mix and press into a pie dish (total: ~11 points for the crust, or ~1.5 points per slice).

 Use fresh lemons for a bright, natural lemon flavor!
 Top with berries or extra lemon zest for a burst of freshness without adding points.
