This fluffy strawberry pie is a no-bake recipe my grandmother would make every year for Thanksgiving. She would make it with a homemade pie crust, but I also love it with a graham cracker crust. Either way is great! It's perfect for a very sweet and light dessert. It just melts in your mouth! Enjoy!
