Key Lime Kefir Pie

I have the good fortune of having a key lime tree in my yard, and boy do I love these little guys. Mixing kefir with citrus fruits is a win-win! You get tons of benefits from the kefir and the key limes are a good source of magnesium and potassium, which promote heart health. Potassium can naturally lower blood pressure and improve blood circulation which reduces your risk of a heart attack and stroke.
