    Yes but what Dinner is complete without dessert?

    Berry Chiffon pie.

    2 and a half cups fresh strawberries or raspberries (frozen work fine too.)
    1/4 cup suger
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    1/4 cup sugar
    1 envelope unflavored gelatin
    3/4 cups water
    2 egg whites (PM me if you don't know how to seperate the whites from the yolks)
    1/4 cup suger
    1/2 cup whipping cream. (Not whipped cream. Whipping cream. You make your own whipped cream!)

    get a pie crust of some sort (preferably baked according to the recipe.)
    in large bowl crush enough berries to measuere one and a quarter cups. stir in 1/4 cup sugar and lemon juice. Let stand 30 minutes. meanwhile combine 1/4 sugear and gelatin. stir in water heat and stir until cugar and gelatin dissolve and then cool. stir cooled gelatin mizture into berry mixture. Chill to consistency of corn syrup stirring occasionally. remove from fridge. immediately begin beating egg whites until soft "peaks" form. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar beating until soft peaks form. When gelatin is partially set (consistency of unbeaten egg whites) fold in stiff beaten egg whites. Whip cream just until soft peaks form. fold into berry mizture. CHill until texture mounds. pile into crust. CHill for 8 hours. if desired garnish with additional berries and additional whipped cream.
