Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened (light or full-fat, your call)
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt this is the protein hero, don't skip it
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar or swap in a sugar-free powdered sweetener for weight loss
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries finely diced, plus more for topping
  • Optional: 1 scoop vanilla protein powder for an extra protein boost

Method
 

  1. Drop the softened cream cheese into a bowl and beat it smooth, about 1 minute. Lumps now mean lumps forever, so don't rush this part.
  2. Add the Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Beat again until it's silky and cloud-like.
  3. In just 2 minutes, fold in most of your diced strawberries by hand, a spatula, not the mixer, so they don't turn to mush.
  4. Spoon it into a serving bowl and pile the rest of the berries on top.
  5. Chill for 15 minutes if you can wait. Can't wait? I get it. Grab a graham cracker and dig in.

Notes

  1. Softened cream cheese: Leave it out for 30 minutes, or microwave it 15 seconds, unwrapped, on a plate. Cold cream cheese stays lumpy.
  2. Frozen strawberries: Thaw and drain them well, and pat them dry, or the dip turns pink and watery.
  3. Protein powder: Add it with the yogurt and a splash of milk if it thickens too much.
  4. Dippers: Graham crackers, apple slices, pretzels or vanilla wafers.
  5. Storage: Refrigerate up to 3 days. Stir before serving.
