non stick cooking spray
1/2 cup crushed graham cracker crumbs
1 tbsp light butter, softened
8 oz package reduced fat cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
6 oz fat-free vanilla Greek yogurt (I used Chobani)
2 large egg whites
2 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp all purpose flour
1/4 cup strawberry jam (I used sugar free)


Heat oven to 350°. Coat an 8-inch square baking pan with non-stick spray.

Mix together graham cracker crumbs and butter with a fork until evenly moistened. Press evenly into bottom of prepared pan.

Gently beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth using an electric mixer. Gradually beat in fat free yogurt, egg whites, lemon juice, and flour. Do not over beat. Pour over graham cracker crust.

Stir jam until smooth. Drop by small spoonfuls over surface of filling. Using a knife, swirl jam gently through filling to create marble effect.

Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool to room temperature. Chill a few hours in the refrigerator.

I dont like the "sour" taste of the greek yogurt either but I get the Oikos Greek yogurt (Fat Free) and use it to cook with... some of the things I did was add horseradish for the grilled veggies. I made chicken tacos the other day and put a little bit of taco seasoning and used it like "sour cream". I added a 1/4 cup to a whole wheat pasta dish the other night for a "cream sauce." know some people add splenda and cinnamon to make it "sweet". I also make a veggie dip by adding ranch seasoning.

I do like the Yoplait Honey Vanilla Greek yogurt. Cut up some strawberries and its great!

Hope that is helpful.
