Here's what I did. I only had one box of jello left since the disaster with the crunchy cool whip. I mixed 1/3 cup boiling water with the powder and mixed til dissolved. Then I folded in the cool whip and mixed til completely blended. Set it in the fridge for a half hour (while I ran on the treadmill, lol) and then I completed my trifle. I used store bought angel food cake, cut into cubes (though tearing would be much faster), a layer of sliced strawberries - I used a whole pint for each layer, and then half the coolwhip and repeated. It makes a beautiful hue of pink! It is SO good! I am not sure on points (WW) because I have no idea how many servings. I mean, for me, it would make 2 servings, lol!!!lkspeir said:

To make Low Fat Strawberry Delight, you will need fresh strawberries, low-fat yogurt, a sweetener of your choice (like honey or agave), and a few optional ingredients such as vanilla extract or lemon juice for added flavor.
Start by washing and slicing the strawberries. In a mixing bowl, combine the strawberries with the low-fat yogurt and sweetener. Mix well until the strawberries are evenly coated. You can also add a splash of vanilla extract or lemon juice for extra flavor. Chill in the refrigerator for about an hour before serving.
Yes, you can prepare Low Fat Strawberry Delight ahead of time. It can be made a few hours in advance and stored in the refrigerator. However, for the best texture and flavor, it's recommended to serve it within 24 hours of preparation.
Low Fat Strawberry Delight is generally suitable for many special diets, including low-calorie and low-fat diets. If you need it to be dairy-free or vegan, you can substitute the yogurt with a plant-based alternative. Always check the ingredients to ensure they meet your dietary needs.
Low Fat Strawberry Delight can be served on its own as a refreshing dessert or snack. It pairs well with whole grain crackers, granola, or can be used as a topping for pancakes or waffles. You can also serve it alongside a light salad for a balanced meal.
