As the temps begin to creep up this lime tart recipe is one you certainly want to have on hand. It tastes as if you have spent hours in the kitchen (I won’t tell.) and yet is a snap to prepare. We’ve made several variations of this recipe and like it best as individual servings in muffin tins. I have also enjoyed a variation of swapping out the lime juice with Meyer lemon juice. Oh Yum indeed!
