Ingredients
 

  • 6 strawberries
  • ½ cup low-fat vanilla Greek yogurt*
  • 12 mini chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Slice stems off the strawberries. Slice the tip of the strawberry off, about ¼ inch.
  • Drain any liquid from yogurt (or ricotta cheese)—then add yogurt to a piping bag (or small plastic bag and cut off the tip). Pipe ~1 Tablespoon of the yogurt on the base of the strawberry. Place the Santa “hat” on top of the yogurt, and then pipe a dot of yogurt for the hat’s pom-pom and two dots as buttons on the base.
  • Carefully place 2 mini chocolate chip eyes in the yogurt.
  • Place in fridge to keep chilled until ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • You can also use part-skim ricotta cheese mixed with a dash of sugar, honey, or maple syrup, or use your favorite non-dairy yogurt
