This month’s Recipe Redux theme was to make a pie, I love pie but, I am not a huge fan of pie crust, I’d much rather eat the filling of a pie and avoid the crust than eat it all together. One thing I do like is meringue cookies, so why not make that a crust for pie?
My Dad’s Favorite pie is strawberry-rhubarb, so for Father’s day, I wanted to make him something special that he would love!
We had an abundance of fresh peaches and rhubarb, but not strawberries! So we combined them for a delicious healthy dessert! I think the the combo of peaches and rhubarb is so much better than strawberries and rhubarb!
This recipe is Gluten free, paleo, refined sugar free, and downright delicious!
