Mix the strawberry puree, Greek yogurt, condensed milk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a large bowl until fully combined.

Gently fold the light whipped topping into the strawberry mixture until fluffy and evenly blended.
Step 4: Fill the Pie
Pour the filling into the chilled crust and spread evenly with a spatula.
