Ingredients
5 medium strawberries, cut into 1/4 dice 2 leaves fresh basil, chopped (about 2 tsp) 1/8 tsp lime zest 2 grinds fresh black pepper 1/2 cup plain Greek-style yogurt 1/4 cup ricotta cheese 2 Tbsp powdered sugar 12 prebaked mini fillo shells
How to make it
In a small bowl, combine strawberries, basil, lime zest, and pepper. Set aside. In another small bowl, combine yogurt, ricotta, and powdered sugar. Stir to blend. Refrigerate until ready to assemble tarts. In each shell, spoon a teaspoon or two of yogurt cream. Top with strawberries. Because the shells absorb moisture, filling will make them soggy over time. It’s best to fill close to serving time. Baking the empty shells will enhance the crispiness. Be sure they cool to room temperature before filling.
