This pie was awesome!!! I made it in a 10 inch deep pie plate so I had to add another two cups of chopped rhubarb. Also I didn't have tapioca in the house so I used flour 8 Tbsp. and it came out just fine. Everyone loved it not too sweet nor too tart! This is definitely a KEEPER! Read More

When strawberries are not quite there but the rhubarb is abundant -try this! I altered the recipe by using 3 cups of rhubarb 1 T. tapioca and 1 t. cornstarch. If you like it sweeter use a full cup of sugar. I also made a crumb crust -- cut 1/4 cup butter into 1/4 c. sugar mixed with 1/2 c. flour and stir in 1 yolk. A very easy and great way to use up that can of Cherry Pie filling! Read More

I was hesitant because I'm not a fan of rhubarb. But it along with cherry are 2 of my Dad's favorites so I made it for him. It was really good! I used a deep dish so I increased the rhubarb to 3 cups and the sugar to 1 cup. Also I used frozen since I couldn't find fresh and it worked fine. I also used light cherry pie filling. I think I could have used a bit more sugar but it passed my Dad's taste test. Read More

Wonderful! Super quick. This pie was a nice change from Strawberry Rhubarb (I hate cooked strawberries). It was sweet and tart very pretty. I cut out pie crust hearts and placed them over the top instead of a full crust. Very "valentiney". Make sure the pie is cool before you cut it and it doesn't run! Read More

I caught my 7 year old cutting into this pie for breakfast! When I teased him about it - he said it was really his 2nd piece. As he puts it "who knew rhubarb could be this good"! Read More
