Default Rhubarb Recipe Maybe?

Could this be SB, PH2? I will be having rhubarb soon and need something to use it in:

Enjoy this low carb & gluten free dessert recipe guilt free! These Strawberry Rhubarb Meringue Pie Bars feature a lemon cookie crust, a pleasantly tangy filling and an ethereal meringue top. Bliss.

Ingredients
For the Crust:

6 Tbsp butter
2 cups almond flour
⅓ cup granulated sugar substitute (I used Swerve)
1 Tbsp freshly grated lemon zest

For the Filling:

½ cup chopped raw rhubarb
1 cup chopped raw strawberries
½ cup granulated sugar substitute (I used Swerve)
6 Tbsp unsalted butter
6 egg yolks
1 Tbsp Great Lakes Gelatin
¼ tsp xanthan gum
2 Tbsp lemon juice

For the meringue:

6 egg whites
⅓ cup granulated sugar substitute (I used Swerve)
¼ cup strawberry puree (about ⅓ cup chopped, then pureed)

I love anything rhubarb, and these bars sound lovely, but there is an awfully lot of butter in them. I wonder if a substitute would work, such as the Smart Balance sticks?
