Living and working in Florida has its rewards. The ocean, sand, sunsets and tart, native key limes. To help celebrate Earth Day and Soy Month in April this vegetarian soy redux of a splendid Southern classic, Key Lime Pie.



Ingredients

Graham cracker crust:
1-1/4 Cups graham cracker crumbs
6 Tbls soft vegan soy spread

Filling:
12 ounces firm tofu
1/3 C powdered sugar
1/4 C Key lime juice
zest of 1 large lime

Garnish:
4 ounces firm tofu
2 Tbls raw sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation

Crush the graham crackers in a bag until they are a course texture. In a bowl thoroughly combine cracker crumbs and soft soy spread. Line a 9" pie pan with the graham cracker mixture and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Puree 12 ounces of firm tofu in a food processor until smooth, about 3 minutes. Add the key lime juice and 1/3 C powdered sugar. Continue to blend until smooth and pour into chilled pie crust. Garnish with lime zest and refrigerate for 2 hours, overnight is better.
