Wash and dry the strawberries. Slice off the tops and cut each berry in half lengthwise.

Using a paring knife or small spoon, carefully scoop out a small well in the center of each strawberry half.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, lemon zest (if using), and a pinch of salt.

Beat the mixture with a hand mixer or whisk until smooth and fluffy, about 1 minute. Adjust the sweetness if needed.

Spoon the filling into a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off.

Arrange the strawberry halves on a serving platter. Pipe a swirl of filling into each well.

Garnish with chocolate shavings, sprinkles, or mint leaves if desired.
