Coconut Meringue Pie

I made 5 of these the other day.  Three to sell at our Fireman's fund raiser and 2 for Mother's Day

 Here's my proof, and don't worry mine are low in calories too. 
 If you believe that I've got property for sale.  
EACH pie has:
5 eggs (homegrown, that is why it is so yellow in the middle)
1 ENTIRE can Cream of Coconut
1 Cup Sugar
1 Cup Coconut 
+ some butter and misc other goodies
and then the crust and meringue.
Now if that isn't low calorie what is?

I had some left over and brought it home.....talk about a mistake.
When I was dating my husband he bought me one and before the weekend was over I ate the entire pie all by myself, now you understand why this was a mistake to bring it home.

I have posted the recipe for the crust on my blog and it is a simple one, but still my favorite crust ever...Flakey, easy and can make ahead.....honest.

Thanks for visiting my "flakey" part of the country,
Jana
