1 container (6 oz) Yoplait® Greek Fat Free strawberry yogurt
1/2 cup fresh strawberries
1/4 teaspoon poppy seed
Salad
6 cups bite-size pieces mixed salad greens
1 1/2 cups halved or sliced fresh strawberries
1 cup mango chunks
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion, separated into rings
1/2 cup pecan halves, toasted

In blender, place dressing ingredients. Cover; blend on high speed about 15 seconds or until smooth.


On 4 salad plates, arrange salad greens, strawberries, mango and red onion. Pour dressing over salads; sprinkle with pecans.



Tips & Tricks:
Need help cutting a mango? Score the skin lengthwise into fourths with a knife, and peel like a banana. Cut the peeled mango lengthwise close to both sides of the seed, then dice.  Use jarred mango if ripe mango is not available.


To toast pecans, sprinkle in ungreased heavy skillet. Cook over medium heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently until pecans begin to brown, then stirring constantly until light brown.
