Total Time: 30–45 minutes
Ingredients
Base Ingredients
2 to 3 cups nonfat Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla, 0% fat)
1 small box (0.3–0.6 oz) sugar-free strawberry gelatin or sugar-free vanilla/cheesecake pudding mix
1 cup fresh strawberries, diced or sliced
Optional Add-Ins
Up to 1 cup cold water or a splash of unsweetened almond milk (to adjust consistency)
Liquid stevia or another zero-calorie sweetener (to taste)
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Fat-free or sugar-free whipped topping (optional)
Instructions
Mix the Base
In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with the sugar-free gelatin or pudding mix. Stir well until fully incorporated and smooth.
Adjust Consistency
If the mixture is too thick, gradually add cold water or a splash of almond milk until you reach a creamy, spoonable consistency.
Add Flavor Enhancers
Mix in vanilla extract and a few drops of sweetener if desired. Taste and adjust to your preference.
Fold in Strawberries
Gently fold in the fresh strawberries, reserving a few pieces for topping.
Chill
For best texture and flavor, refrigerate the mixture for 20–30 minutes. This allows it to thicken slightly and develop a fluffier consistency.
Serve
Spoon into bowls or cups, top with extra strawberries, and add a dollop of whipped topping if using.
