Ingredients

Scale

(Serves 8)

Fruit base:

2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
2 medium bananas, sliced (you love banana desserts!)
1 tsp fresh lemon juice (to prevent browning—you love citrus!)

Fluff mixture:

1 (8 oz) tub sugar-free whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip Free or homemade—you love blood sugar friendly!)
1 cup plain Greek yogurt or cottage cheese (high-protein—you love this!)
2 tbsp powdered monk fruit sweetener (optional, to taste)
½ tsp vanilla extract

Optional add-ins:

½ cup mini marshmallows (use sugar-free—you love marshmallow combos!)
¼ cup chopped pecans or almonds (you love nuts!)

Instructions

1. Prep fruit:

In a large bowl, gently toss strawberries and banana slices with lemon juice.

2. Make fluff:

In another bowl, fold together whipped topping, Greek yogurt (or cottage cheese), sweetener (if using), and vanilla until smooth and fluffy.

3. Combine:

Gently fold fruit into fluff mixture. Stir in optional marshmallows or nuts if using.

4. Chill & serve:

Refrigerate at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours). Serve chilled.

💡 Pro Tips for Perfection:
✅ Add bananas last—minimizes browning and mushiness.
✅ Use full-fat Greek yogurt—adds creaminess and protein without thinning.
✅ Blood sugar friendly (you love this!):
→ Sugar-free whipped topping + monk fruit = zero glycemic impact
→ Net carbs: 8g per serving
✅ Low-carb/keto option (you love this!):
→ Reduce banana to ½; double strawberries
→ Skip marshmallows; use crushed nuts only
→ Net carbs drop to 5g/serving
✅ Make ahead:
→ Best within 4 hours (bananas soften over time)
→ Prep fluff base 1 day ahead; fold in fruit just before serving
