For Valentine dessert I want to offer something that’s light and healthy, yet also fulfill that itch for something sweet after dinner. Honestly, this could also be served for breakfast it’s so light and naturally sweet.

By mixing a touch of strawberry preserves into plain greek yogurt, trimming a bunch of the strawberries into heart shapes and tossing a handful of blueberries in for added color and texture you can create a decadent parfait that can be prepared hours ahead giving you time to focus on the rest of your meal and of course, all of the love!

Slice the strawberries lengthwise and then cut a notch in the top to form heart shapes.

Place 5 strawberries inside the cups so you see the heart shapes through the glass.

In a small bowl, stir together the yogurt and preserves.

Spoon the yogurt mixture into the cups on top of the blueberries.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Strain Your Preserves 🍓
Push strawberry preserves through a fine mesh strainer before folding into greek yogurt to remove seeds and create a silkier, more elegant texture that blends seamlessly.
Freeze Strawberries Before Cutting 🔪
Chill strawberries for 30 minutes before carving heart shapes—they'll hold their form better and the cold fruit will stay fresher longer in the yogurt base.
Layer Strategically for Stability 🥣
Start with yogurt mixture at the bottom, then alternate berries and yogurt layers, finishing with berries on top to keep the parfait visually stunning when assembled hours ahead.
Customize Your Sweetness Level 🍯
Mix preserves at a 1:4 ratio with yogurt first, then taste and adjust—this prevents over-sweetening while letting you control the intensity to balance the tart berries.
Use Quality Thick Greek Yogurt 🥛
Choose full-fat or 2% greek yogurt with at least 15g protein per serving—it holds its structure better than thinner varieties and creates a more luxurious, creamy mouthfeel.
