Looking for a simple and delicious dessert recipe that’s perfect for Mother’s Day or generally for summer? Look no further than this Greek Strawberry Jelly and Greek Yoghurt Dessert recipe!

With only a handful of ingredients and just a few steps, this dessert is easy to make and tastes absolutely delicious, making it a perfect choice for a quick and satisfying treat.

Who can enjoy this dessert?

The basic recipe without the strawberry coulis has only 44 calories per serving, so this dessert is perfect from those who are:

  1. Watching their weight: A dessert made with low-fat Greek yogurt and no added sugar can be a great choice for those who are trying to manage their weight. Greek yoghurt is high in protein, which can help to keep you feeling full and satisfied, while the lack of added sugar means that the dessert will be lower in calories and less likely to cause a blood sugar spike.
  2. Managing diabetes: For people with diabetes, controlling blood sugar levels is a key concern. A dessert made with no added sugar can help to keep blood sugar levels stable, while the protein in Greek yogurt can help to slow down the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.
  3. For those who have Gallbladder stones and are following a low-fat diet: A low-fat Greek yoghurt and strawberry jelly can be a great option for those who are trying to limit their intake of fat. Greek yogurt is naturally lower in fat than other dairy products, and the lack of added sugar means that the dessert will be lower in calories overall.
  4. Looking for a healthy dessert: Desserts can be a great way to satisfy a sweet tooth, but they are often high in sugar and calories. A dessert made with low-fat Greek yogurt and no added sugar can be a healthier option that still feels indulgent and satisfying.

It is important to note, however, that even low-fat and no-added-sugar desserts should be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. As always, it’s best to consult with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian to determine what dietary choices are best for your individual needs and goals.

How to make the Strawberry Jelly

To prepare the dessert, the strawberry jelly is first prepared with hot water and allowed to cool until it begins to set.

Begin by preparing the no-sugar strawberry jelly with hot water, using 500ml water, instead of the suggested on the packet 600ml, to give the dessert a thicker consistency.

Then, the Greek yoghurt is added to the jelly and whisked together until fully incorporated.

The mixture is then distributed into bowls or dessert cups and refrigerated until fully set.

Can I make this Strawberry Jelly and Yoghurt Dessert more decadent?

Of course. You can use a regular packet of strawberry jelly, 500ml with 200ml of full-fat Greek yoghurt, mixed with strawberry coulis and served with whipped cream on top!

The result is a refreshing and decadent creamy dessert with a delicious combination of textures and flavours.

The addition of fresh strawberries on top or a tablespoon of homemade strawberry coulis on top of each serving provides a beautiful and flavorful finishing touch to this delightful dessert.

This dessert is perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a mid-day snack or a sweet finish to a meal.

It’s also a great option for those who are looking for a healthier dessert option, as the basic recipe has only 44 calories and Greek yoghurt is a good source of protein and calcium.

One of the great things about this recipe is its versatility.
