Ice Box Pie (pineapple version)

This is the most easy pie... and it is so delicious!!

It is easy to change up too.

This is the pineapple/pecan version.

2 cartons coolwhip
3 tbs lemon juice (fresh!!)
1 can Eagle Brand Milk
1 large can crushed pineapple (drained until it is dry.. use cheese cloth)
1 cup chopped pecans
2 shortbread or vanilla wafer pie crusts (they are just better!)

Use mixer and whip coolwhip with lemon juice until stiff. Hand stir in remaining ingredients. Pour half into each crust. Put in fridge for a couple of hours to chill.
SERVE!!

It is that simple!!
Variations:
-add sweetened coconut flakes

Lemon/Lime Icebox Pie
(instead of pineapple and pecans)
Use 1 6oz can frozen lemonade or limeade and garnish with lemon or lime zest!!
