Don’t you wish you could come over and enjoy a piece of this Rhubarb Pie?  If I had to pick to one favorite dessert, this would be it! {yes, even above chocolate}

I love this pie, so when I walked in the grocery store and found rhubarb – it just had to be.  Some of you may be fortunate to have rhubarb growing in your garden, it’s one of those plants that comes back year after year with no bother at all; just happy to be a part of your pies and goodies.

Rhubarb is somewhat of an acquired taste,  I know some recipes like to “temper” the rhubarb with strawberries and other fruits, but my first choice is this plain, unadulterated pie with just rhubarb- and of course the custard with just a hint of nutmeg . . . . mmmmm.  In my opinion this is the best rhubarb pie recipe you will ever find.

If you love rhubarb, you’ll love this pie.  If you’re not sure, or never tried it – start here!
