Saw this on TV. Most everyone likes pie. Here's a super easy pie that is not to sweet, and if you know how to stir you can make it. I really like this easy to do pie, since our Cubs typically are new to the kitchen, and this is a very easy pie which in my mind will boost confidence in a new area to them. If you think eating yogurt will *gross-out* your Cubs, make it for them first without telling them what is in it. Or just tell them some of the ingredients, whip cream, some fruit, and a cookie crust.

Ingredients: 1 container strawberry yogurt (the fruit on the bottom kind
1 container mixed berries yogurt (the fruit on the bottom kind
One-half of 8 oz. Container cool whip
ready made graham cracker crust (we used a chocolate cookie crumb pie crust)

Stir together well first three ingredients and pour into crust. Pop it into the freezer for approx. 3 hours.
