Seafoam Pie
Delicately Tinted, Lime-flavored
Light, fluffy seafoam pie is guaranteed to make a colorful splash at an autumn luncheon party. The delicately-tinted, lime-flavored filling, studded with drained canned fruit cocktail, is heaped into a baked pie shell. This is a glamorous, easy-to-make party dessert, thanks to convenient canned fruit cocktail, a bright combination of peaches, pears, seedless grapes, pineapple and cherries.
Seafoam Pie
1 (1 lb. 14 oz.) can fruit cocktail
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Beat egg whites until stiff. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar, beating to a stiff meringue. Fold into cooled lime mixture. Then fold in well-drained canned fruit cocktail.
