Blue Ribbon Recipe by

This is a quick and easy pie for picnics or family gatherings. It's one of my favorites. So easy to prepare and tastes so good.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This rich and creamy no-bake pie mimics the flavors of a classic banana split. The pudding filling is full of crushed pineapple and laid on top of sliced bananas in a graham cracker crust. Covered in whipped topping, the dessert is sprinkled with nuts and chocolate sauce. Adding a cherry on top makes this taste like a sundae in pie form. A wonderful no-bake dessert for summer.
