Although I do not usually contaminate dessert with diet concerns, this easy yogurt cream pie tempts me to do so. It has a thimbleful of fat (less than 3 grams) and less sugar than a lollipop; plus it packs 5 grams of protein in every slice. But that’s not why you should try it; make it for the bright lemon flavor and the lighter-than-air texture.
1 (3-ounce) box lemon jello
3/4 cup boiling water
3 (6-ounce) containers vanilla lowfat yogurt (2 1/4 cups total)
1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
1 prepared 9-inch graham cracker or other cookie pie shell (about 6 ounces)
12 large strawberries, greens trimmed, halved lengthwise
Dissolve the gelatin in the boiling water in a bowl, stirring until the mixture is completely clear. Add 1/2 cup to the yogurt and mint extract, stirring until completely combined. Pour into the crust, cover with plastic wrap, and chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
Arrange the strawberry halves, cut-sides down, over the top of the pie. Warm the remaining gelatin in a microwave until fluid and brush over the strawberries. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
