Breakfast Strawberry Shortcake with Greek Yogurt & Oats

Breakfast Strawberry Shortcake with Greek Yogurt & Oats ~ Eating dessert for breakfast?  Absolutely!  Greek yogurt, oats, mashed strawberries & a bit of sweetener become a sweet treat for breakfast that only tastes indulgent.  :)

I'm loving using fat free Greek yogurt!  It really turns whatever I use it in into something special!  The other morning I came up with a very satisfying breakfast spin on a dessert favorite of mine, Strawberry Shortcake.  This recipe only has a few ingredients, but it really packs in the flavor.  I'm calling it my ~ Breakfast Strawberry Shortcake Greek Yogurt & Oats. 

I think it would be just as good for an actual dessert, too ~ if you're so inclined.  I bet blueberries & peaches would also be a good combo for this breakfast/dessert.  Hope you like it as much as I do!

Ingredients

Directions

Mash fresh/thawed strawberries with 2 packets of Equal, until nice & mushy.

Stir Greek yogurt, oats & remaining Equal packet together until fully combined.

Serve in a pretty bowl.  Enjoy!

((if you don't want to bother with mashing the strawberries, you could probably use a couple of tablespoons of fruit juice sweetened strawberry jam, for a similar taste))
