Ingredients

1 prepared pie crust I just use Marie Callendar's for crust cooked according to the package
1 ½ lb fresh strawberries
1 cup water
½ cup sugar
½ tsp strawberry Kool-Aid
4-5 Tbsp of Ultra Gel or Ultimate Gel
½ cup whipped cream
1 Tbsp heaping powdered sugar
dash vanilla
18 or so fresh blueberries

Instructions

Wash the strawberries, remove the tops, and slice in half.
In a large bowl, combine the water, sugar, Kool-Aid until sugar is dissolved. Then add the Ultra Gel or Ultimate Gel one Tbsp at a time, whisked to mix in each time. One you have reached the desired thickness fold in the strawberries and pour into the pie crust.
Whip the whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla until firm peaks form. Pipe the whipped cream around the pie and add a squeeze in the middle. Decorate with blueberries and enjoy.
