Possible Ingredient Alternatives

For those seeking a dairy-free option, the Greek yogurt can be replaced with coconut yogurt or silken tofu. Coconut yogurt offers a similar tangy flavor and creamy texture, while silken tofu provides a neutral base that absorbs the gelatin flavor well. Both alternatives maintain a protein-rich profile. The sugar-free strawberry-flavored gelatin can be substituted with agar-agar powder and fresh strawberry puree for a more natural, vegan-friendly option. Use about 2 teaspoons of agar-agar powder per cup of liquid, and add strawberry puree to taste. For those looking to reduce artificial sweeteners, unflavored gelatin combined with pureed strawberries and a natural sweetener like stevia or monk fruit can be used. This allows for better control over sweetness and flavor intensity while keeping the dessert low in sugar.

Ingredients

  • One box (1.6 oz) sugar-free strawberry-flavored gelatin
  • 3 cups low-fat greek yogurt

Step 1: Mix Yogurt and Jell-O Powder

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine yogurt with dry Jell-O powder.

Stir them together until the mixture is evenly combined and the powder is distributed throughout the yogurt.

Step 2: Dissolve the Jell-O Powder

Place the bowl in the microwave and heat for 1 minute.

Remove and stir the mixture.

Return the bowl to the microwave and heat for another minute, then stir again.

Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring each time until the Jell-O powder is fully dissolved.

Be aware that microwave power may vary, so keep an eye on the mixture to avoid overheating.

Step 3: Portion Into Liners

Once the Jell-O powder is completely dissolved, spoon the mixture evenly into 10 foil cupcake liners or silicone liners.

Ensure each liner has an equal amount of the mixture for consistent servings.

Step 4: Chill Until Set

Refrigerate the filled liners for at least 1 hour, allowing the mixture to chill and firm up.

Once set, they are ready to be served as a cool and fruity treat.
