Key Largo Lime DeLIGHT!

What’s more refreshing after a long hot day in the sun than kicking your feet up with a nice refreshing piece of Key Lime Pie? How about Key Largo Lime DeLIGHT? All of the taste, without the guilt! Unless, of course, kicking your feet up causes you pain because you spent a little too much time in the sun without proper UV protection! OUCH. Well, I want you to get full enjoyment out of this delightful dessert, so in case this happens to you, this recipe feature provides an at-a-glance guide to taking care of that painful sunburn (be wise and use SPF to try and avoid the UV burn altogether!).

REMEDIES FOR SUNBURN*:
• Drink a lot of water to help counteract the drying effects of a burn
• Take a cool bath for 15-20 minutes
• Use cool cloths on sunburned areas
• Apply soothing lotions that contain aloe vera to sunburned areas
• Topical anesthetics may offer some temporary relief from pain and itching (look for products that contain lidocaine)
• Take an over-the-counter pain reliever to relieve the pain and cut the inflammation

While these measures are all great once the damage is done, remember it’s most important to try to avoid being burned by the sun in the first place! Ok, enough preaching – let’s get right to the recipe! The refreshing taste of Key Lime Pie will be yours as soon as you get in that kitchen and get to whisking! It's all here for you and ready to go. Each Alli’s Slim Pickins recipe provides detailed ingredients, nutritional information, and step-by-step instructions on how to prepare each mouth-watering meal! Let's make it happen…
