"A man who was fond of wine was offered some grapes at dessert after dinner. "Much obliged," said he, pushing the plate aside; "I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills."--Jean Antheleme Brillat-Savarin, The Physiology of Taste

In saucepan, mix unflavored gelatin with 1/2 c sugar; blend in egg yolks that have been beaten with water and lemon juice. Let stand for 1 minute. Heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is dissolved. Add lemon peel and food coloring. Chill, stirring occasionally until mixture mounds slightly when dropped from spoon. Beat egg whites until foamy; add remaining 1/4 c sugar and beat until stiff but not dry. Fold into gelatin mixture. Spoon into crust; chill 3 - 4 hours.

Personal Notes:
Mom saved this recipe from a Keebler Pie Crust package, but I suspect buying a ready made crust was an isolated incident as she generally started from scratch. Try this quick substitute - 1 1/2 c graham cracker crumbs, 3 T sugar and 1/3 c melted butter - mix in the pie pan you're going to use and press to bottom and sides of pan - bake in oven for 10 minures and presto - it's ready to fill. Thank Betty Crocker for this one.
