Pineapple Chess Pie

I love Chess pie because it is a tasty, quick dessert you can whip up in a hurry, with ingredients you have on hand! I most often make lemon..because I am a lemon dessert addict who seriously needs intervention..but I like this one a LOT also!

Ingredients:

1 1/3 C sugar
1 TBS fresh lemon juice
1 tsp. vanilla
3 eggs
¼ C butter, melted
8oz. can crushed pineapple with juice
1 refrigerated pie crust, partially baked

Instructions:

Bake pie crust at 425* for about 10 minutes. Melt butter; add sugar, eggs, lemon juice and vanilla; beat well. Add crushed pineapple and juice and mix. Pour into pie crust and bake at 375* until filling is just set. Good pie!

I am sharing this with Sweets for a Saturday. and Foodie Friday.
