Ingredients

6 tablespoons coarsely chopped macadamia nuts
1 9 inch baked pastry shell
1 6 ounce can frozen limeade concentrate, thawed
1 4-serving-size package vanilla instant pudding and pie filling mix
2 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup powdered sugar
3 medium kiwifruit, peeled, halved lengthwise and sliced
1 6 ounce carton lime low-fat yogurt
1 1/2 cups frozen whipped dessert topping, thawed

Directions

1. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the macadamia nuts in the bottom of the pastry shell.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together limeade concentrate and vanilla pudding mix.

3. In a medium mixing bowl beat cream cheese with an electric mixer for 30 seconds. Beat in powdered sugar. Add limeade mixture and beat well. Transfer 3/4 cup of the mixture to another medium bowl; set aside. Spoon remaining mixture into the pastry shell. Top with two of the kiwifruit.

4. Beat yogurt into the reserved 3/4 cup cream cheese mixture until combined. Fold in whipped topping. Spoon over filling in pastry shell. Cover and chill 8 to 24 hours. Garnish with remaining kiwifruit and nuts. Makes 8 servings.

This pie is great for those hot summer days. Very refreshing with a strong lime flavor. I will try the graham cracker crust next time. Not only does it taste good, it looks beautiful. My teen sons were very impressed!

This can be made as well with lemonade or pink lemonade concentrate. I sometimes add food coloring to give the filling more omp and to make it more festive. I've been making this pie since high school in the '60's and still love it.

I LOVE this pie -- it is my favorite dessert now. I also used a (deep dish) graham cracker crust and omitted the macadamia nuts because of costs. I also use the lighter cream cheese and Cool Whip and sugar free pudding mix.

this pie was very good, I am glad to see the "light" ingredients worked, I was going to do that next time. I didn't use the powdered sugar at all (only because I missed that step :-)) but didn't miss it at all. Next time I will do the crust from scratch.

This is a wonderful spring/summer pie! I used a low fat graham cracker crust and substituted "light" ingredients for the cream cheese and whipped topping and it was unbelievably good.
