It takes only 5 minutes and 4 ingredients to make our strawberry fruit dip for the perfect summer, sweet treat. Whether it’s for an afternoon snack with fresh strawberries, or an easy dessert for a family gathering, this more natural strawberry dip without fluff is a recipe we haven’t been able to get enough of.

Growing up, my mom always made a strawberry dip from strawberry cream cheese and fluff. And it was amazing. It was a hit at every party, and I remember always craving it. And at the time, I think she was just happy for me to be eating some fruit. 

But now, I wanted a way to move away from the fluff. If you don’t know already, here at The Candid Cooks, we specialize in wholesome comfort food – basically we try to minimize processed foods while maximizing natural foods. But we don’t want to leave our favorite recipes in the past… So we make new, wholesome, versions of them. So we can nourish our bodies and our souls. And our favorite memories can live on.

Key Ingredients

• Greek yogurt – This recipe works best with a thick Greek yogurt, like Fage, so that the dip is as thick and creamy as possible. Because we want all the strawberry flavor coming from the jam, we use plain Greek yogurt, not flavored.
• Strawberry jam – Strawberry jellies and jams come in a wide variety of quality. For instance, Smucker’s strawberry jelly doesn’t even contain real strawberries! Just strawberry juice and high fructose corn syrup… No thank you. On the other hand our favorite local jam (Sidehill Farm) is made with just strawberries, cane sugar, and lemon juice. So remember to take a look at the ingredients label of jams and jellies. You’ll taste and feel the difference.
