Lemon Icebox Pie

This has got to be one of the easiest pies to make for your friends and family for Spring and Summer.  Can't go wrong with lemon.  This pie has one 5 ingredients and no baking.  A few years ago I won a dessert contest and was on a local morning show to showcase this pie and how simple it really is.
