Strawberry Pie Filing
  1. In a large saucepan, add sugar and water and heat over medium high heat. Slowly whisk in cornstarch. Incorporate well making sure there are no lumps.
  2. Stir continuously for 4-5 minutes or until the mixture begins to thicken and turns slightly clear.
  3. Remove from heat and whisk in the strawberry Jell-O package until it has dissolved completely. Let cool to room temperature.
  4. Add in the strawberries to the Jell-O mixture, making sure they are evenly coated. Pour into the prepared graham cracker crust.
  5. Place in the refrigerator and cool for 2-3 hours. Enjoy!
