INGREDIENTS
- 1 pound Florida strawberries
- 8 ounces low-fat cream cheese, softened
- 3 ounces low-fat yogurt
- 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
PREPARATION
Cut stems off the strawberries and carefully scoop out 2/3 of the inside by using a knife or spoon, creating a “cup” (be sure not to make any holes). Cut off a piece off the bottom tip of the strawberries to allow them to stand up. Beat cream cheese and yogurt until fluffy, the fold in vanilla extract. Working in batches place cheese mixture into a pastry bag or a ziploc bag with a small corner cut off. Fill strawberries with cheese mixture. Garnish with mint and serve.
