This was awesome, the blueberries compliment the lemon. I used sugar free shortbread cookie crumbs instead of the low fat vanilla wafers, added more flavour. I used cooked pie filling and let it cool before adding the cool whip. This is a quick and easy dessert that is fancy enough to serve to guests. I will definitely be making this again.

@aries55 It seems like you didn't do your research before that review. Although you are right saying that Diabetics have to watch sugar, fructuous sugar (the one that comes from fruit) is not really that bad for us. And diabetics do have to watch fat because it becomes carbs after a while and can raise your blood sugar quite a lot. I haven't personally made this recipe yet but will be doing so soon. I am also a diabetic and have been so for 7 years. I think this looks amazing!

This recipe is made to be low fat. You do realize that diabetics watch sugar not fat, right? It has 18 gm sugar per servining. A diabetic can't eat this without some reaction. Most of the recipes on this site for diabetics do not meet the standards for most diabetic needs.
