Ingredients

Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter texture, ensure the Cool Whip is well-folded with the yogurt, avoiding overmixing. You can substitute low-fat yogurt for a healthier option or use whipped coconut cream for a dairy-free version. Fresh strawberries can be replaced with frozen ones, but thaw and drain them well to avoid excess moisture. For added flavor, consider a splash of vanilla extract.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this delightful pie with a dollop of additional Cool Whip or fresh whipped cream on top. It pairs beautifully with a side of fresh fruit or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat. For a fun twist, consider serving alongside slices of Lemon Fruit Pie for a refreshing dessert platter.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover pie in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. To reheat, allow it to thaw in the refrigerator overnight before serving. This ensures the pie remains firm yet easy to slice. Avoid leaving it at room temperature for extended periods to maintain its texture and freshness.
