Key Lime Pie

One of the first recipes I made when I went to college.  Very easy to make, but tracking down the Key Lime Juice makes planning a necessity.

Ingredients
2 large eggs
2 large egg whites
1/2 cup Key Lime Juice (like Nellie and Joe's Famous Key West Lime Juice)
1 teaspoon grated lime rind
1 (14 oz) can fat-free sweetened condensed milk
1 (6 oz) reduced fat graham cracker crust
1 1/2 cups frozen reduced calorie whipped topping, thawed

Preparation
  1. Preheat oven to 350*
  2. Beat eggs and egg whites at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended. Gradually add juice, rind, and milk to egg mixture, beating until well-blended.
    Spoon mixture into crust, and bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until almost set (the center will not be firm but will set up as it chills).
    Cool pie on a wire rack. Cover loosely, and chill 4 hours. Spread whipped topping evenly over filling.
