This pie is incredible for a number of reasons. One, it's lemon. Hello, citrus fruit! Two, it's insanely easy to make. Three, it's utterly delicious!
Lissie was reading some article Wednesday night and this recipe was given. I decided then and there it would be a perfect addition to my birthday pie buffet, especially as I had all the necessary ingredients on hand! :o)
Ingredients:
1 8oz. block cream cheese, softened
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1/3 cup lemon juice
zest of 1 lemon (or more if you desire)
1 graham cracker pie crust (okay, so I had to go to the store for this one)
Directions:
Beat cream cheese with mixer until good and soft. Add condensed milk and mix until combined. Add lemon juice and zest (we added the zest to the recipe since we're big citrus hounds in this house) and again mix until combined. Pour into crust and refrigerate.
Yes, it really is that simple. And, goodness me, so tasty. :o)

I've been busy on a home improvement project and wanted something quick and easy for dinner that we could eat on for a couple of days. Enter this easy potato soup that I sort of made up.
Ingredients:
*about 3 pounds potatoes, cubed
*1 onion, diced
*3 cartons chicken broth
*6 T flour
*1 1/2 cups milk
*1 1/2 blocks cheddar cheese
*sour cream
*bacon
*chives, chopped
I have a large crock pot, so this fits my pot. You may have to modify accordingly. Put potatoes, onion and broth in crock pot set on low. Cook all day. I cranked mine to high about two hours before I was ready to eat.
Mix flour and milk and add to soup. It will be cloudy and thicken, about twenty minutes. Add cheese (more or less to taste) and allow to melt, stirring it to help it along.
Serve in bowls with a dollop of sour cream, bacon and chives. It's thick, hearty and tasty. :o)
