How to make frozen yogurt bars

2. In a parchment lined 8x8 pan, press and even layer of the granola mixture over the bottom with a spoon.
3. In your high speed blender mix together your strawberries and yogurt until well combined.
4. Pour strawberry mixture over granola evenly.
5. Optional: Melt a few frozen strawberries and use the strawberry juice to create swirls in the yogurt bars. Using a spoon pour a small dime-sized amount of strawberry juice scattered across the bars. With a fork or toothpick, drag the dot until a swirl forms.
6. Top with thin slices of strawberries. (Optional : cut your strawberries in a heart shaped for a beautiful dessert that's also festive for Valentine's Day!)

How to cut your strawberries in heart shapes

- Lay your strawberry half face down and with a paring knife carve a V shape into the strawberry.
- Slice up the half into thin pieces and to create a few hearts.
