Fresh Strawberry Pie

1 ¼ c. sugar
5 T clear jel
1 package strawberry Kool-Aid
pinch of salt
2 ½ c. water
fresh fruit (1 pound package)

Mix dry ingredients well. Add water. (At first the mixture will be a bit lumpy, stir until most of the lumps are out. Then let it sit for a bit and it will thicken.) Add strawberries.
Put in graham cracker crust or baked shell. Cool in fridge.
Good for raspberry pie too or peach with orange Kool-Aid.

Clear Jel is a modified corn starch and can be bought at Gygi’s in Salt Lake, not sure if you can find it at other places. I’m pretty sure it’s not at grocery stores…
