This Keto 2.0 Plus lemon curd makes this lemon meringue pie a great boost for dessert. Tastes like it’s sweet and can be and yet it’s Keto friendly. Easy to make, just remember to do it ahead of time and do not do what I did the first time I made this and forget to put the curd in. I made the crust, then put the meringue in there and I thought wow, all the lemon curd got absorbed by the crust, only to find the curd in the refrigerator later.
