For the Filling:
- 1 quart fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 cup water
- 1 package (3 oz) strawberry gelatin

Instructions:
For the Crust:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

- Cool the Glaze: Allow the glaze to cool slightly, then pour it evenly over the strawberries in the pie crust.
- Chill: Refrigerate the pie for at least 2-3 hours, or until the filling is set.
