    Greek yogurt - The perfect creamy topping for this snack/dessert! You could add some of the purée to the plain yogurt to make a strawberry yogurt.

    Peanut butter - I use a 100% peanut butter with no added additives or sugar.

    Freeze dried sweet strawberries - These are an optional ingredient but I like to use them in my recipes. They are a great alternative to fresh strawberries, you can use finely chopped strawberries too!
