Description
These high-protein cheesecake stuffed strawberries are a healthy, no-bake dessert made with fresh strawberries filled with a creamy Greek yogurt and cream cheese mixture for a sweet, satisfying treat.
Ingredients

- 1 scoop (about 2 tbsp) vanilla protein powder
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup

Instructions
- Rinse and dry the strawberries. Slice off the tops and carefully hollow out the centers using a small spoon or knife.

Notes
- Use a piping bag for a cleaner, bakery-style presentation.
