Lemon Meringue Tart
Looking for a fairly easy but impressive dessert? This lemon meringue tart may be just the right ticket for that informal dinner party or a special treat for your family. With just the right mixture of sweet and tart; not too filling and great presentation; the lemon tart compliments a roasted chicken dinner or fits nicely into a Sunday brunch menu.
We like to add a little excitement to our meal by browning the meringue at the table using a plumber’s touch.
