INSTRUCTIONS

1 Preheat oven to 450°F. Prepare pie crust as directed on package for one-crust pie using 9-inch pie plate. Blind bake as directed. Cool completely.
2 Meanwhile, place 5 cups of the strawberries in a large saucepan. Cook on medium-high heat 20 to 25 minutes, stirring frequently, until thick and jammy. (You should have about 2 cups of cooked berries.)
3 Whisk lemon juice, water, gelatin and vanilla in small bowl. Let stand 5 minutes or until mixture has thickened. Stir gelatin mixture and sugar into strawberries. Return to simmer; cook and stir 2 minutes longer. Remove from heat. Transfer to large bowl. Cool 30 minutes.
4 Coarsely chop or slice remaining 1 cup strawberries. Gently stir into cooked berry mixture. Pour into prepared crust. Refrigerate until set, about 4 hours.
5 Meanwhile, for the topping, beat heavy cream, sugar and vanilla with electric mixer until soft peaks form. Spread over pie or serve on the side.
