9 inch pie crust ( you can use my recipe for Homemade All Butter Pie Crust or you can use refrigerated pie crust and cook the pie crust following the directions on the box).
4-6 cups fresh strawberries, quartered and hulled

Bake pie crust in 9 inch deep pie dish and set aside to cool.
Put the water, sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
Whisk constantly until it become thick. For about 3 minutes.
Then whisk in the Jell-O and cook for a minute longer.
Remove from the heat and let cool for about 15min
As the glaze cools, place strawberries straight into the pie crust.
Pour the glaze over the strawberries.
Refrigerate until set.
