 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2/3  cup           sugar
  1                    unflavored gelatin
  1      cup           water
  2      teaspoons     lime peel -- grated
    1/4  cup           lime juice
  3      drops         green food color -- optional
  4                    egg whites
    1/2  teaspoon      cream of tartar
  4                    egg yolks
  1      cup           2% lowfat milk
    1/4  cup           sugar
  2      tablespoons   orange juice, frozen concentrate
                       lime slice -- for garnish

In small saucepan, stir together sugar and gelatin.  Stir in water.  Cook
over medium heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is dissolved, about 5
minutes.  Stir in peel, juice and food color, if desired, until blended.
Chill, stirring occasionally, until mixture mounds when dropped from a
spoon.

In small mixing bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar at high speed just
until whites no longer slip when bowl is tilted.  Gently, but thoroughly,
fold gelatin mixture into whites.  Pour into 1-quart mold or 4 (8 to
10-ounce) dessert dishes.  Chill until firm, several hours or overnight.
Just before serving, unmold onto dessert plate(s).

To make Orange Custard Sauce:
In small saucepan, beat together egg yolks, milk and sugar.  Cook over low
heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick enough to coat a metal
spoon and reaches 160F degrees.  Remove from heat.  Stir in orange juice
concentrate.  Cool quickly by setting pan in bowl of ice or cold water and
stirring for a few minutes.  Cover and chill thoroughly.  Spoon sauce around
rim of plate(s) or pass sauce.  Garnish with lime slices, if desired.
