We don't yet have a rhubarb plant (although we are going to procure one this fall!), but I do have a fabulous rhubarb pie recipe (from AllRecipes.com) that I am happy to pass along. Enjoy!!

Fresh Rhubarb Pie
Ingredients:
6 cups chopped rhubarb
1 cups white sugar
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon butter
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
Directions:
-Preheart oven to 450 degrees F.
-Combine sugar and flour. Sprinkle 1/4 of it over pastry in pie plate. Heap rhubarb over this mixture. Sprinkle with remaining sugar and flour. Dot with small pieces of butter. Cover with top crust.
-Place pie on lowest rack in oven. Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue baking for 40 to 45 minutes. Serve warm or cold. (If you eat it warm, make sure to have some vanilla ice cream in the house!!)
Because this area has never heard of a rhubarb, I planted mine from seed & am babying it along, anxiously waiting for it to produce in 2 more years! =] mmmm =]
