i got this recipe off of the back of a splenda bag, but changed the berries to strawberries and used less (to have a more pie-like consistency) and the jelly to strawberry jelly, and added cool whip light to to top it with. it is realllly good! and it stays good for a couple days. it's the healthiest pie i've ever made in my life. you could change the berries to blueberries and use blueberry jelly, or raspberries and use raspberry jelly if you want. i just tried strawberry because that was the kind of jelly i had in my house, i loved it. everyone here at it up fast! it's a great way to get fruit servings in! :)
