INGREDIENT NOTES:

NON-FAT GREEK YOGURT:

  • A creamy base forms with the use of non-fat Greek yogurt. It also has high levels of protein in it. Just using plain low-fat yogurt is also an option.

FAT-FREE WHIPPED TOPPING:

  • A texture that is lighter comes with the use of fat-free whipped topping. For an alternative, you can make use of low-fat whipped cream.

FRESH LEMON JUICE:

  • This is what adds brightness to the dessert, and it is also the main flavor. If fresh is not available, you can use the bottle version of the lemon juice.

LEMON ZEST:

  • When we use lemon zest in the dessert, it does not include a large amount of calories, and it also helps in making the lemon scent stronger. You can either omit this ingredient or make use of lemon extract, but a tiny amount, just a drop.
