Roy Rogers Lemon Meringue Pie
Dusty Rogers (Roy Rogers Jr.) enjoyed the Margarita pie recipe so much last month that he made it for his entire museum staff! One word of advice from him, "When making the recipe, you may want to sample the ingredients as you go. Tasting the tequila with every step makes it more fun!"
It inspired him to share the recipe that brought his parents together. The story goes that Roy was performing in Ohio when an attractive fan offered to feed him and his singing group her mother's Lemon Meringue Pie. Pie lead to dinner, dinner to courting, courting to history being made!!!!!
Please enjoy The Pie That Won Roy's Heart!
