In a medium mixing bowl prepare and beat dried egg white product to stiff peaks according to package directions, or whip the cream to soft peaks. With a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, gently fold egg white mixture or whipped cream into strawberry mixture. Spoon filling into cooled crust. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or until filling is firm.
