Title: Lemon Bisque
Post by: Elizabeth779 on May 30, 2013, 12:35:46 AM
Hi Umpa -- here is a refrigerator creamy lemony flavor thing I'd like to convert.....what do you think  is it doable?

Graham cracker crust -- I could live without the crust even....that's really basic so I didn't add it here. 

1 (12 oz) can regular evaporated milk (chilled overnight in refrigerator)
1 (.3 oz -- small package Lemon Jello
1 3-4 cups boiling water
1 cup sugar

1.  Chill unopened can of evaporated milk in the refrigerator overnight.
2.  Dissolve jello in hot water and chill until partially set.
3.  Whip jello until light and fluffy.
4.  Add lemon juice and sugar to the whipped jello and mix.
5.  Whip the chilled evaporated milk; fold into the jello mixture.
6.  Put in 9 x 13 pan (that had grahm crackers base....but I would just put the lemon bisque mixture in plastic container.
7.  Chill until set.  This takes about 5 hours. 

When my mom made this she sprinkled graham cracker crumb mixture on top also,.....Like I said above, I'm interested in making the creamy mixture above.....and also, thinking I might would try adding Key Lime Juice instead of lemon juice....

What do you think?  Can this be made into low carb?
