This dresses up strawberries into a lovely dessert.  I have made it a little more decadent by subbing in chocolate pudding for the yogurt. 

8 strawberries
Using a paring knife, carve out the stem and middle of each strawberry.

½ small banana
3 Tbl. yogurt (vanilla is tasty, but unflavored also works)
Mash the banana in a bowl with a fork and mix in the yogurt.  Fill the center of each strawberry with this mix.

1 Tbl. sliced almonds
Pat onto top.

Serves 2.
