Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups reduced-fat vanilla yogurt
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp grated lemon zest
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 -3 cups fresh fruit , cut into bit-sized pieces

Directions:

Set a strainer lined with cheese-cloth or a coffee filter over a large bowl. Place the yogurt in the strainer, cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate 6-24 hours. Yogurt will thicken and liquid will drain into the bowl, leaving about 1 cup of yogurt cheese in strainer. Discard liquid.
Whisk yogurt cheese, sugar, lemon zest and juice together in a small bowl. Let stand 10-15 minutes or until sugar dissolves.
Divide fruit among 4 dessert bowls or plates. Top each with 1/4 cup of yogurt cheese. Garnish with lemon zest or sliced almonds if desired.
