In Greek: φράουλες με κονιάκ, pronounced FRA-oo-les meh kohn-YAHK

Using low-fat or fat-free Greek yogurt (or making your own) turns this into a great choice for low fat dieters.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound of fresh or frozen and defrosted strawberries
  • 2 tablespoons of Metaxa or other brandy
  • 3 tablespoons of brown sugar
  • 2 cups of low-fat or fat-free Greek strained yogurt

Preparation:

Clean the strawberries, remove stems, and cut into quarters. Toss with sugar and brandy and refrigerate, covered, for 3 hours.

In each serving bowl (serves 4) place half a cup of yogurt and top with 4-5 spoonfuls of strawberries and 2 spoonfuls of the syrup.
